Yeah but you know what sucks, I bought an A instead of a C, but what im learning now is that if you draw instead of blow you can play otu of key, still what can I play with with an A? I think its like
B minor
C sharp Major
D and E. So yippie for me, until I learn how to play outside of my key, im stuck with those complimentry keys.

Isn't that the same with all blues harmonicas though? You can bend notes by drawing at a certain angle, but this is really better used as an effect rather than actually using it to play a different key. I think that most harmonica players get a big set of harmonicas, which they take around in a carry-case, so that they can play properly in a range of keys. Sticking to a few keys, with one harmonica, isn't really a problem though is it? Its doesn't mean that the songs can't still have a load of chord changes.

You get two, the one it comes in for blowing, and the one you get when you draw. You can always change chords, its an instrument. Well they can carry a ton, or they can carry a chromatic.
