16 hole B flat harmonica

(1/16) > >>

streetlegal:
Is it possible to get 16 hole chromatic harmonicas in keys other than C? I know that harmonicas can be customised but that would be out of my price range. I'd like one in B flat.

Grizzly:
Nope. You'd have to get a C 16 retuned.

There are a few 12 hole ones available. It is my favourite key. Not too high and not to low for reed response. I dislike to 2 top holes of normal C harmonicas, and the bottom 2 on the baritone C are often difficult to play well. The Bb is just perfect, either that or A which is just as good.

Most tuner guys I've talked to say you can go down two clicks with no problems and Bflat is two clicks down from the stock tuning. I've seen guys with Bflat 16 holers, and one tuned down to B.

Easiest way is running that C 16 over with the backwheel of your car...Instant B flat ;D
