I am very interested in the harmonica tunings, brought up by Pat Missin. I
used to play Harps in the 60's, but didn't know that they were tuned just at
that time (Didn't even know what Just was). all I knew was that I needed
different harps for each key.
Is it difficult to tune harps for custom requirements? I wouldn't
mind switching for keys and modes, if I could have my harmonics and
subharmonics too!
For Harmonic Series,
How about:

Blow:

G C E G Bb C D E F+ G
6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24


Draw:

Bb D F+ A- B C# Eb F- G- G#
7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25
