This review is from: Lee Oskar Harmonica Harmonic Minor A (Electronics)
As a total novice at playing the harmonica, I ordered this basically out of curiousity. It certainly increased my own enjoyment of the harmonica - per the claims in the description, it adds the option of minor chords so common in various types of ethnic music and A minor (being the "all white key" minor scale) is a great tuining to start with.The only minor complaint is that the chord progression for the top holes is a bit hard to get used to - don't know whether this is just this particular instrument or true for A minor tunes in general.

This review is from: Lee Oskar Harmonica Harmonic Minor A (Electronics)
I play Eastern European Gypsy Music on Accordion, have done for forty years. I play it on the chromatic harmonica too, so when I found this instrument, I had to have it. Right out of the box it introduced a very soulful sound to my chosen music - being a minor keyed instrument, no chromatic lever is needed to get the true vibrant sound of the slow romantic tunes, or the slower mournful tunes so loved by the Gypsy musicians. Had I have found this instrument fifty years ago, I would probably never have learned the Chromatic - so maybe it is good thing, that it wasn't made that long ago. It is so much fun playing this harp, that I am going to get a couple more keys in minor to go with it. So far, I have abused it happily for a week, with no problems.

I am just learning how to play the harmonica, and for the price, this is a good one to start with. Great blues sound and easy to play. Love the fact the plastic cases these come in clip together.
