Hohner harmonica Piedmont blues set?
I'm in the process of learning the harmonica and am interested in trying out different keys. I currently have a Hohner in C and know that I want an A for sure. I've found the Piedmont blues set and was wondering if it is worth it or if I should just stick to certain keys? When I say worth it, I don't mean monetary because the set is inexpensive, what I mean is how many opportunities are there to use all the keys? Which keys are more commonly used? Oh, my interest is in The Blues, of course. Also, if not Hohner, which brand would you suggest?
I haven't played these, but from everything I've heard/read they are not worth getting. They seem prone to defects, and the plastic housing doesn't sound appealing to me. Several reviewers have said it produces a "plastic" tone.
I would suggest buying keys as you need/want them. Once you start playing regularly, you will go through A and D harps, since you will be playing them more often. You should get those keys next.
As far as brand, some people suggest Lee Oscar's, but I'm not sure whether it is just to be different, or what. Virtually every blues player uses Hohners. Two of the best harp players alive, Tom Ball & Rod Piazza, play Special 20s and Marine Bands respectively.
If you want a case, Hohner has a nice hard shell one (what I use) that holds all 12 diatonic harps and a chromatic.
Fender has a similar one that also holds a bullet mic and cord.
GOOD LUCK
