Blues Harp help

[K Williams]

Anyone try the Seydel 1847? It's supposed to be a Marine Band on steroids(quality and price!). I just ordered the Seydel Blues Soloist Pro. Will probably get an 1847 soon.

What harp key do you all consider to be your favorite? I like A or Bb.

I have only fooled with the harp occasionally over many years. Annoys the dogs....
I can bend notes pretty well, but playing good blues harp takes considerable effort! We have a local fellow who does seminars now and again, he's one of those clever types that can play full chromatic scales on a diatonic harp. No expensive chromatic for him!
I currently have one of the Hohner "Special 20" models; the one with the plastic body. No worries about swelling or loosening from too much soaking.

Hi guys!

First I was in the "Whine & Cheese" Forum. But that the wrong place to write. So write here. Thank you all, for the information. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...y-mouthharpplayers-out-there-need-information! This was the wrong-placed thread. I got already some useful information here.

If I have some other questions, I know where to go for asking

Kind regards from Germany

Great thread, I have a couple harmonicas, my mothers father loved to play harmonica. Never met him, but I have a couple of his harmonicas. I can't say that I want to get back to the harmonica, because I never learned to play one. Gotta get my ass in gear.
