A few weeks ago I bought a Hohner Pocket Pal and have been messing around with it trying to learn some basic tunes. I sent away for Hohner's information kit and was overwhelmed by the amount of and types of harmonicas out there!
I am completely new harmonicas and music in general. Could someone explain to me the differences between "diatonic", "tremolo", "octave", and "chromatic" harmonicas? Are there different styles of music played with each type of harmonica? I'm so confused....
Thanks, Jason. auj~cvax.inre.asu.edu
