[edit] Layout

Thanks to the folks who wrote harmonica, it was of great assistance. Hyacinth 07:13, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Added drawing of blues-harp layout, in place of previous textual diagram. --Lor 03:42, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Nice image! I added it to harmonic#The diatonic harmonica. Hyacinth 04:49, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] scales match

I might be wrong, but the fifth degree of the key of G is D, not C. Therefore, if you use C-harp to play the blues in G, an A-harp should by analogy be applyed for the blues in E. I'm not a harp player, so I might be wrong...

you're right, you use a C to play G, and an A to play E (whoever wrote this had it backwards, you use an E to play B and a G to play D)... I'm fixing it now.

It's me again :) I think it would be more correct to say "The key in which blues harmonica is played..." instead of "The tuning of a harmonica played in this style..."

[edit] The Ending is a Joke

The ending of this already short article is a tangent and completely outside of encyclopedia format. It starts with the "alcohol soaking" paragraph and only gets worse. I will wait a while for a reply and then rework it. Didgepenguin
