Re: [Harp-L] Elderly Instruments sale, Which Chromo?

Crutch asks:
 
<< a first chromo for a competent 
diatonic player?>>
 
I suggest that you get a  Hohner CX-12
 
They are good harmonicas, and are available in a wide range of keys. But  
what key to get?
Well, "C" is the usual choice for a chrom... But MY first chromatic was in  
"G", which works well for 3rd position blues in "A".. Not that I knew 
anything  about playing blues back then. (I was 8 years old at the time)
 
If I had just ONE harmonica, I think I'd chose a chromatic in "G".
 
All the best,
