I got a Chrometta No 255, 12-hole chromatic harmonica for Christmas.
Can some one tell me the difference between the Super Chromonica No 270 and the Chrometta No 255.
This is my first harmonica. I am delighted with how easy it is to learn the basics of this instrument. I was able to sight read most anything (mostly christmas music, single melody only) within about an hour. Plus I can play most any tune from memory without missing a note (not quite to full speed yet). I can't believe how easy it is to play a tune from memory. I guess it is because the harmonica is laid out basically in thirds and most normal music is also. It took me a half-year on a classical (I play mostly classical) guitar to get as proficient as I am at 10 hours on the harmonica. Of course this doesn't say I have a good tone, volume, etc or can play any Jazz yet. But then most classical guitarist work their whole life getting good tone at volume.
