7 - Delta Frost Product Description:
In October 1998, while attending the King Biscuit Blues Fest, I went
into Eddie May's Cafe in Helena, Arkansas looking to see if I could
jump in on a good jam. I was hanging out in back of the joint waiting
for some music to start, and there stood Frank
Frost. I had seen Frank in the movie
"Crossroads" back in the '80s, but he looked rugged and
road worn now. Years of health problems and living a blues man's life
had caught-up with him. I gave him a harmonica as a gift, and we sat
and sipped whiskey together. Like me, Frank appreciated the woody,
pure, cleanly dissipating essence of smooth Bourbon. I thought to
myself that sipping whiskey from a paper cup might not be the exact
prescription that Frank's doctor had written for him, but it sure was
working for me. Frank liked it too. Years of hurt, disappointment and
suffering couldn't hide the smile in his eyes as we talked about
music and harmonicas and the red headed girl in the corner. There I
was, with Frank Frost in a juke joint down in the Delta - it was a
special moment for me. Frank died exactly one year later on October
12th, 1999. I want to help keep his name in front of people so I'm
calling this harmonica Delta Frost. With its whiskey smooth,
Stainless Steel cover plates, and its plastic comb that's been milled
and rounded for comfort, this instrument is up to the task of helping
to keep the memory of Frank alive. Most harmonicas have brass reeds,
the Delta Frost has longer lasting, copper colored, Phosphor
Bronze reeds that not only provide hours of dependable
play, but they produce the dirtiest, bluesy tone of any harmonica
I've ever heard - it's a "cracklely" tone that would fit
right in down at Eddie May's place. And if your Delta Frost ever goes
out of tune, you can get a replacement
reed plate for only $9.50! The Delta Frost is available
in 14 keys including the 12 standard keys plus Low F and High G, and
it's backed by Bushman's "30 Day No-Blow-Out" Warranty. Also see our Harmonica Neck Rack to allow for simultaneous harmonica/ukulele performance. Written by John Hall, New Palestine, Indiana - August 2003.
