Harmonica

[bombtek]

Frustrated with my guitar abilities, I am thinking about trying out the harmonica just for a kick. errrr unless its like wicked hard or something, then I might as well just stick to guitar .

Any of you guys play harmonica, and if so how difficult was it to learn, and what would be your recommendation for one?

I was thinking of the Hohner Special 20.

Hell, its only $30. I can justify that

I got a harmonica and a how to book when I was 11. I liked the Blue Brothers and thought it would be fun. It took me about a week and I gave up on it.

one of the easiest instruments ever

I tell ya what..... every instrument I have tried to play I have had at least moderate success... except the harmonica.... I don't have the blues.... I am assuming that this is the problem....

Harmonica players are like a good date.. know when to suck and when to blow at just the right spot and time.

I bought one when I wasn younger, (like 8)and the beautiful thing is, there is no real learning. You can just like blow into, imitate the hand movements, and it sounds great!

It's pretty easy. The Hohner Special 20 is my favorite kind, and very easy to bend on. Get an A harp to play with blues songs in the key of E. Most of your notes will be draws instead of blows, and you will have a minor/bluesy sound.
