I am new to the harmonica; which tuning should I start with?

A diatonic harmonica is a great choice for the beginner as it is relatively easy to learn. As a result, most harmonica teachers recommend starting out with a 10-hole diatonic harmonica tuned to the key of C. If you’re not sure about the harmonica type, start with a standard 10-hole diatonic.

Diatonic harmonicas are the most common type of harmonica you’ll encounter in pop, blues and folk music. They are designed to play in a specific key. It is possible to play in keys and modes other than its “offical key” by using overblowing and note-bending techniques.

Most harp players end up with a collection of diatonic harmonicas from various makers in a range of keys. Since their cost is modest, building a collection of harps to suit various styles of music and situations is easy to do. For that reason, we recommend you try a number of different models. That way, you can quickly discover which instruments suit your playing style and the sound you’re going for.

Lee Oskar harmonicas are also available in minor and other non-standard scales. Many harp players love their bright, penetrating sound. Lee Oskars are the best harmonicas in the world, and that’s not just our opinion. All over the world, professional players prefer Lee Oskar harps over any other brand.

Replacement reed plates

Why throw out the whole harmonica because one reed has become fatigued? Lee Oskar provides you with a better option. Simply purchase a “new” set of reed plates and create a new harmonica at about half the cost. The original comb and cover plates are recycled into the rebuilt harp. This simple process involves only three screws and and two nuts and bolts.
