[Harp-L] Harmonica key id's

[philharpn@xxxxx]

You can get one-inch dot stickers from any office supply store. Office Depot. Yellow work best.  

I use them on the top of any harps I use more than once. It's always handy to pick up a harp and know what is the top and left/right. 

On small sets (7) I use two stickers= 1) for Key and 2) for 2nd position so that when I'm teaching a class I can just pick them up and know at a glance what keys they play without thinking about the Circle of Fifths

I play piano, so knowing 1st, 2nd position is no mystery to me.

I personally have never used stickers but as an alternative I use a black medium sharpie on light colored combs and a white oil based Sharpie called "paint" on black or dark combs. This product adheres to wood glass plastic etc. it's not for everyone I'm sure but it works great for my needs and the gig case I use as my harps are all vertical with key noted on the end (side of comb). Last quite a while and easy to touch up if need be.
