The moment the Delta Frost appeared on the market, speculation began on who was manufacturing the model for Bushman?

With no inside knowledge, it was evident that the Harp could have been made by Suzuki, because only Suzuki spot-welds harmonica reeds.

Then, if one delves further, it becomes possible that the basis of the 'Delta Frost' might be the 'Harpmaster', a relatively new, recently developed model by Suzuki.

Indeed, except for the engraving on the covers, the harmonicas are almost equal.

However, there is another, small, but significant difference...

When disassembling the harmonicas a slightly altered cover-opening is discernable.

But this is peanuts ..........

And here we come to the crux:
In the enlargement, it is clearly visible that the reeds of the Bushman Delta Frost are much brighter in colour..

The reason? They're made from Phosphor-Bronze, a material distinguished by its especially long durability.

Altogether the Delta Frost strikes with its extreme air-tightness.

We have no other Harp on offer with a comparable small air-volume stream that simultaneously creates a louder sound.

The overall playing qualities are excellent and without doubt the harp is well worth the money.
