Weighty jews harp with a thick frame has a sound, consistent with its appearance - it is a deep and nice bass. Tactile sensations are not far behind - the reed is moderately hard and heavy, felt by finger. Operating "in groups of overtones" quite comfortable in the available range. In addition, high resistance to frame relative compression, makes it easy to start with the instrument. Reed elbow is long and not very hard. Removable magnetic ball-weighting is used to change the pitch, but both the frame of "Titan" and the reed are magnetic and, in addition to all the "ornaments", jews harp has a typical "magnetic" extra sound, audible only in very small amplitudes.
