Farmer SideNote Harp Holder
From: Original price was: $59.95.$54.95Current price is: $54.95.
The Farmer SideNote Harp Holder has a half arch that makes taking it off a breeze – no need to take off your hat or worry about your hair! This stainless steel half arch is solid and sturdy, yet flexible enough to adjust the position of the harp cradle.
Add-On Options:
- Patented Magnetic harmonica mount made from a strong, rare-earth magnet for quick, one-handed harmonica swap-outs.
- Easily adjustable harmonica height and angle for the perfect fit (no tools needed).
- Over-sized wingnut to easily cinch down the frame position.
- Every SideNote is made by hand in our Michigan, USA shop with care.
- Get the most out of your harp holder with add-ons: Farmer Mic/Kazoo Mount or Farmer Dual Harp Mount.
- Made from high-quality materials: 4 mm stainless steel upper frame, 1/2" wide aluminum lower frame, rare earth magnets embedded in steel, leather chest pads, and rubber neck sleeve.
- Note: these work with 95% of the harmonicas on the market, but Suzuki and some other cheap entry-level harps are not steel (no iron). For those harmonicas, we have a Farmer Spring Grip add-on. Or your can use our Farmer Metal Tape Harp Mount as a more economical way to mount all your non-magnetic harmonicas.
The Farmer Harmonica Holders seek to perfect what it means to play hands-free harmonica. Our Farmer SideNote is designed to let players adjust the height, angle, and shape of their harp holders to achieve a perfect fit. On top of that, we have an angle-adjustable magnetic harmonica mount that makes swap-outs easy and one-handed. The magnet won't adversely effect your harp reeds since it has no attraction to brass or stainless steel. Our SideNote was designed to be a low-profile alternative to the hugely cumbersome Hohner FlexRack and other generic extra-wide spring-loaded models that leave you with a huge piece of steel between your face and the audience. You can also take the SideNote off around your neck, meaning you can wear your big hair or cowboy hat without struggling to take it off over your head. This single-arm mount also gives you more space to sing into your microphone.
NOTE: Works with MOST harmonicas, see "Harmonica Compatibility" tab above.
For those that are not*, we have the Farmer Spring Grip Harp Holder add on.

Regarding magnets and ICDs and Pacemakers.
“Magnetic fields in magnets in devices and machinery can inhibit pulse generators for ICDs and pacemakers. In ICDs in particular, magnets can activate a switch prohibiting the ICD from delivering vital signals such as lifesaving shocks.
If you have an ICD or pacemaker, avoid close or prolonged contact with magnets or their magnetic fields. Keep magnets at least six inches from where your device is implanted.
Of course, you may not always know if you have come into proximity with machinery that employs a magnet. It’s best to err on the safe side: If you feel any interference, move away from the source, or turn it off if possible.”
