Which key to buy?
I'm looking to move up from my C harp and I'm not sure which key to purchase
next, either A or D, for playing blues in E or A. I'm looking at these two
keys mostly because I play acoustic guitar at the same time and blues
progressions in A and E are easier than most others. Right now I capo at the
third fret and play in the key of G as if it where the key of E. Anyways, my
question is: Besides being in different keys, how do these two harps differ in
playability? I have heard that the A harps are real low and harder to play.
I'm still basically a beginner and play cross harp in the single note style.
If key is irrelavent, should I just go with the D harp, or is there some
special quality to the A harp. I've never blown anything but a C harp. I will
probably get a Special 20, maybe a Marine Band, possibly a Lee Oskar.
thanks for any help
Bill
