Or for anyone who's got an effects device that allows them to produce a wide range of tones with a single instrument. A few months ago I released a clip to this list that demonstrated pretty convincing bass harp sounds made with a standard diatonic and a Digitech RP set to pitchshift the original tone down two octaves.

The big question remains: what audience is going to sit still while you play in 4 different parts for anything more than a 2-bar vamp?  Imagine a rock or jazz band where every arrangement was played one part at a time...
