Hello Ben,

First of all thanks for the videos and demonstrations !!!! very nice info!

Ive been playing for 3 months only on the key of C. I'm wondering and cant decide which key should I try now. Which key would you recommend to be my second one to practice, which keys do you think are the basic ones ( A, C G , E?? ) finally whats your favorite Hohner harmonica over all?

Thanks in advanced for your time and knowledge.

Greetings from South America and looking forward to your response.

@charcuterocbog Well I think C, G, A, Bb, D is the way to go. Hohner Thunderbirds are the best I ever tried but very expensive. Maybe go for the Sonnyboy's Special from SonnyboysMusicStore dot co dot uk - they have a boxed set of 7 with all those keys included and the whole lot is cheaper than one Thunderbird. You get what you pay for! Ben

Mr. Ben do you have any demos for Lee Oskar Major Diatonic harmonicas? i wanna know whats the difference between those two.. still cant decide what to buy :)

[benhewlettuk]

@bhorj24 No I don't think so, but go to Lee Oskar-music and he has it all there.

The D-flat sounded the best of the models shown. Thats my opinion.
