Re: PowerBender key choice
I would choose an Eb PowerBender for Gm/Bb . 5th Position is really nice on the PowerBender. That's what I'm using on the Will Wilde video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5V0mPDpxYk (below the video) the track is in Em ; Will is playing an A harp in 2nd Position, I'm playing a C harp in 5th Posit...

Re: Lucky 13 Power Chromatic key of D
... Tab gives me a good map of where the notes are. Still, a lot of it is trial-and-error. But be aware that there is no consistent and generally valid system how to write tabs.

Re: Hohner Penta from 1955
Maybe it's a single harmonica, as described here: https://www.patmissin.com/ffaq/q36.html ? An instrument seems to be intended for early music education without bottom reeds.

Hohner Penta from 1955
Does anyone know this harmonica? Or even better: Does anyone coincidentally own one? https://up.picr.de/38674495fa.jpg Original picture out of the book "Hohner - The Living Legend" by H. Wenzel and M. Häffner https://up.picr.de/38674576od.jpg embossing of the coverplate shown more clearly visible, a...
