    I'm not sure how much help this is, but I play a little. I discovered that a A440 "G" Marine Band allows me to play standard songs that I am familiar with. I also have a Blues Harp, that I will get the hang of one of these days. I get mine at the fleamarket for around $5 each.
    I am a true ass set to this board.

      start with a 4th above the key you're playing, so if your song is in 'E', get an 'A' harp.

      Here's some sites to help you.

          Does that thing give a close shave as well?

              Don't forget the corn. It's nutritious, delicious, and ribbed for her pleasure.

                  I used to own a harmonica, but it was heavier than my EDS-1275, so I traded it to JohnnyMac for a Mel Bay chord book and a package of Chicklets.

                            Am I the only one who thinks it's a bit gross to buy a harmonica at a flea market? I mean, loads of people might have sucked that thing and who knows what they've had in their mouths. It's not like you're buying a Marshall stack or something here. A brand new one isn't all that expensive.

                            If you really want to play every key, why not just get a chromatic harmonica?
