Except the guitar is not fixed and has a lot less room to suck.

Neither good or bad. It depends on the talent of the musician.

I'm speaking mostly as a player tbh. I hate how limited the instrument can be if you only have one on you. Melodicas pretty much sound like harmonicas and allow you to play a lot more interesting things.

Out of tune toy harmonicas are ****ing dank though.

Depends on which garage and my life at the time.

I really like accordion and harmonica too; played well, both instruments can do sad, angry or jazzy music imo.

The flute I'm not so happy with; it usually sounds a bit feeble to me, even in Ian Anderson's hands. Also, the harp, which so often suggests flitting about with ballerinas or angels. The only harp player I ever had a passing interest in was Andreas Vollenweider of Dancing with the Lion fame.

I think that pretty much any instrument can be played well.

It can definitely sound feeble, but it can be warm when used well.

I like Zeena Parkins and Rhodri Davies.

Little Walter is the ****, and that's all I needed to know about harmonica.

Lmao, he sounds like he just started playing and he recorded himself practicing for the first time.

Weird how he's better than 95% of people who take harmonica seriously innit.
