AUTHORISED SUZUKI DEALER

I am an authorised SUZUKI musical instrument dealer and can supply you with any instrument from their current range. I specialise in Harmonicas and Melodions.

The harmonica is the ideal instrument for someone wanting to play a musical instrument with minimal outlay, including students who may be learning to play the harmonica at school. Discounts are available for educational establishments. Contact me by clicking on the link in the left hand column. I have been trading on Ebay and Ebid for sometime now, you can always checkout my feedback and know you can buy with confidence.

In its simplest form the harmonica can be an easy instrument to play, but at the same time is a surprisingly complex instrument as many of the websites explaining the theory of the harmonica will testify to. One of the common confusions is which key to play in for the various positions. Please see the simple guide to keys and positions below.

Which Harmonica or position should I use?

Harmonica Key Change Table

Harmonica 1st Position 2nd Position 3rd Position

Straight Harp

Commonly used for simple melodies and a folk-rock style. Your basic starting and/or ending place would be hole 4 blow.

Cross Harp.

The most common position for blues, country, and rock. Your basic starting and/or ending place (point of resolution) would be hole 2 draw.

Third position

Great for songs in minor keys and minor blues. Your basic starting and/or ending place (point of resolution) would be hole 4 draw.

If the song is in the you could play a harmonica in second position, or you could play a harmonica in third position.
