[Harp-L] Re: Ultimate half-valved chromatic tuning

[David Pearce <harpdog123@xxxxxxx>]

I'm on a quest to find the ultimate bendable half-valved tuning and I was elated to recently discover Brendan Power's "Power Chromatic Tuning" which is" C/D, E/F#, G/A, A/B, C/D, etc., all the way up the harp.  The only thing I don't like about this tuning is the fact that the G is a blow note rather than a draw, so I thought I'd try: C/D, E/F#, F#/G, A/B, C/D, etc..  

Would there be a disadvantage in terms of chords to changing the repeated note from an A to an F# as shown in the above example?
