This Kyrgyz temir-komuz is made by Narzhigitov from Kyrgyzstan. The jaw harp by Master Narzhigitov have a higher pitch compared to other models by this blacksmith. Such jaw harps are suitable for melodic playing as well as for any other style, including two-sided strikes.

They have a very loud but at he same time clear sound, and the jaw harp's reed responds well to any articulation and breath. The overtones of this temir-komuz are very controllable. It has a massive body, which allows holding it in any way without worrying that it might compress during playing.

The case is made of wood (poplar). The notes on the jaw harps vary. This model is presented in the key of A2. You can see the length of the reed in the photo.
