The Vargan Compass by master smith Glazyrin is a very pleasant jaw harp - somehow elegant in its sound and playing feeling. At the teeth it is well balanced and smooth to play. The double screwed reed is medium hard, does not strike the frame and allows a wide variety of modulations. Well suited for beginners.
Great price-performance ratio!
The decorated wooden box - developed by Glazyrin to fit this Vargan - is available optionally.

Russia is a country with a handful of jaw harp traditions: in Sakha/Yakutia, in the Altai, and in Tuva the Khomus (or Komus) is played; in Bashkortostan the Kubyz is known, and in Western Russia and in the big cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg one can hear the name Vargan. An overview.
