Lee Oskar Melody Maker Harmonica, In E Major

The diatonic major series:

Is most often used for playing Blues, Rock, Country Folk, and Jazz. The Melody Maker series are instruments in the diatonic major tuning, allowing the user to play melodies in second position (Cross Harp) with a much more expressive sound.

The Melody Makers are used in Country, R&B, Pop, World or Reggae music, but are not recommended for playing the Blues. Natural minor harmonicas allow the user to play the minor Blues on a diatonic major. All the missing notes from the diatonic are available in second position on the natural minor, as used in Blues, Rock, Country, Reggae, Pop and Jazz.p>
