10-hole diatonic harmonica in the key of D minor from Natural Minor series that has a very bluesy, soulful sound that is perfect for playing minor blues, rock, country, reggae, pop and jazz. This tuning is set up to play minor music easily, without straining the lips, the lungs or the mind. It features all of the notes and chords that are missing on the major-scale diatonic harmonicas. The instrument is designed to be played in 2nd position (cross harp), not 1st position (straight harp). In the 2nd position, many of the draw notes can be bent and this allows for much more expressive, fluid style of playing. The 2nd position is a very poplar style used by most players for today’s music.
