I recommend Lee Oskar harmonicas- they're easy to take apart to clean & seem more airtight than Marine Band ones. (The plastic comb is less susceptible to moisture than the wooden ones too).

Golden Melodys are good too- but don't seem to like staying in my neck holder as much as the Lee Oskars do.

Thanks for the tip I will look into them

Obviously this thread is worthless without pics.....

What I don't get about harmonica is that basically the one you get out of a posh Christmas cracker is the same as the most expensive one you could afford. At least. they sound the same to me.

Harmonica, the reason most guitarist tune down a semi tone so the pub landlord can't join in on harp

Wasn't that SRV's reason as well?

Managed to buy a one today whilst getting a bottleneck. Dunno how it happened really! So....I had better start sucking and blowing and see what choons I can knock out.

The great thing about playing a semitone down is the pub landlord who thinks he can play can't join in as he only has an E or A harp.

Mouth organ vs harmonica apparently.
