Re: [Harp-L] A question

Hi Pablo,
I think your choice of the SP20 would be a good one if you want to retain
the blues sound but still do overblows/bends. It is tuned for blues chords,
and somewhat airtight. I personally wouldn't buy different harps to practice
on. It makes more sense to practice on the same kind that you would perform
with.

 I suggest learning as soon as you can how to work on your harmonicas to
optimize them for your playing, as well as make repairs and retuning as
needed. This will save you much frustration and money in the future. If you
haven't discovered it yet, check out www.overblow.com for information on
playing and adjustments.

Good Luck,
Joe
