Hello CarlosM. You will need

Hello CarlosM. You will need an A harmonica to study on the site. The good thing is that the G harmonica is a good harmonica... you will use it in your intermediate studies, but for the beginning studies you will need an A harmonica.

Hi. I also purchased a G harmonica and now plan on purchasing an A Special 20. As this is expensive and it will take while:

1. Is there still value in doing some of the material or does one risk learning the wrong way, and

2. Will a new harmonica purchase enable another 30 day trial or is that a one time only per user affair?

Thanks.

Hello pauldonis, welcome to

Hello pauldonis, welcome to the site. You could listen to the examples and then pause the video or mp3 and then play by yourself. This may get old after a while. You can use a program like the Amazing Slowdowner (www.ronimusic.com) to change the key of the mp3s to match your harmonica. I recommend you get the A harmonica, it will be easier.

You are correct, only a one month total trial to the site is given.
