I discovered that the weekender is a tremelo harp. Ooops! But- I do note that yes, with a little innovation tremelo blues harp is playable.Tremelo harps are fairly inexpensive, and with a lot of work at it, notes can be bent. The air flow in a tremelo harp is very loose, and any bending must be accompanied by heavy warbling. I mentioned once here that I suspected Little Walter of playing tremelo here and there, and one cut, 'Fast Large One' , is undoubtedly a tremelo harp! How do I know? I played it. Check it out y'all.
