The Blues Session Standard is the ideal harmonica for beginners. Rounded Black ABS plastic body with recessed reedplates. Ergonomically shaped rounded covers.
I've tried dozens of different 'tin sandwiches' and I have to say the Seydel's a the best IMHO. They are a bit soft to play, needing less air. But they let you easily do all the blues tones and bends. And they can scream if you want that.
