Mostly had Marine Band and Blues Harp Hohners, but once had a collection that had belonged to a friend's dad. 4 in 1, several tremolos and some others. All got stolen when my apt. was broken into back in the early 70s. Dad toted a ten holer of some sort in WWII. Used to serenade me at bedtime now and then, when I was a little feller.
If three or more people think you're a dimwit, chances are at least one of them is right.

Two of my best friends grew up with the late Norton Buffalo, and I had the pleasure of taking him bass fishing,and going to some of his concerts. Picture of him and my buddy playing at our Memorial Day party and BBQ before his passing. RIP Norton.
I've been kicking around the idea of getting one for a while now. If you were to get one, what key would you all recommend to start with? I was thinking "C" would be a good place to start. Recommendations?

I think I quite screwing around trying to learn to play when they went up to $15.
Damn, I'm old!

I was going to suggest him. I saw him numerous times back then.
This thread reminded me of my GrandDad, Bob. He could play the heck out of one of those old Marine Band Hohner Models. He’d alway play us “He’s in the jailhouse now” and “Little Brown Jug”. He could also play about any tune he heard. Said his GrandDad taught him. His GrandDad had driven many herds of cattle up the Chisom & Goodnight Loving Trail.
Anyhow, he bought all of us grandsons one and tried to teach us how to play. I never could do anything but make noise with one, though I’m a pretty decent guitar player.
Good memories as a kid !

I did some work for him right before he got sick. GREAT guy. Seriously down to earth dude with a great, positive attitude and zero hang ups. I was rather bummed when I heard he died. True loss and I'll always be happy I took the time to bull schidt with him as I had almost no idea of his music career. A true gentleman and a fun hang.
Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

Damn. I was thinking GrandDad bought mine for about $12 bucks. I remember him taking me to the music store when I was 7 or 8.

Yep.
THAT long ago.
As I recall, they were in the $8-$12 range for years and years.

Long ago I knew of him from his work with Steve Miller and others.
A relatively old one. Harp start about 2 minutes in, Miller on guitar first.
