HI, My names Chris and I'm a musician and Custom Case builder from, Lincolnshire, UK. I have been playing the harmonica all my life, more seriously for the last year and a half and it has become some what of an obsession.

Not the first time this question came up here (or any other forum) but the answer sometimes changes over time.. For me, it used to be Bb (B flat) but since I have a Low F, I'm only rarely touching my other harps... I just loooove the sound of a low F. How about you?

I'm thinking of experimenting with a chromatic harmonica to play some Little Walter 3rd position type stuff. I've never owned a chromatic harp before and I don't want to spend $200+ to find out that the chromatic is not for me. I've seen some Swan chromatics online from $25-$50. Does anybody on the for...

For me, it's Delta Frost (Bushman) and Harp Masters (Suzuki) all the way. I have been using some of them since I bought my first harmonica book from Jon (Gindick) 5-6 years ago and they are still playing like new... They are easy on the lips because of the plastic combs and easy to bend, what else do you w...
