Recommended Gear
A C harmonica is the first one you need to follow along with the lessons on the site on works great for these Christmas classics. I often play a Hohner Special 20 Harmonica in the key of C through a Shure Green Bullet microphone Model 5200 and Fender Super Champ amplifier
Musical Challenges
Single notes make the melody stand out. Air support. phrasing and vibrato enhance your sound.
The Harmonica Essentials course can help with single notes and getting you sounding your best.

5 Pack Case of Hohner Special 20s
What do I like about the Special 20s?
Great Sound, Smooth Comb, Responsive to Bending - but not loose, Affordable. I play Special 20s more than any other model.
Martin Acoustic Guitar Strings
If it's been a while since you've changed your strings, you won't believe the difference in the sound. These are some excellent Martin strings. Need I say more? Totally affordable.
Hohner Harmonica Holder
The Hohner Harmonica Neck Holder fits harmonicas up to 7-1/2" long, has a nickel plated finish and fits any neck shape.
I have used a similar holder for over 25 years. This no-nonsense holder will work for you.
