If a chromatic player got a 2nd chromatic, which Chromatic Key (after C) would be best to get for a player wanting to jam with others (blues, rock or pop)? And why?
Most pop chromatic players only use the C, playing in all positions/keys.
Blues players commonly play in 3rd Position, placing them in the key of D or Eb (with the slide in). The next most common chro key is Bb, which places you in C... you'll hear Rod Piazza and William Clarke use the Bb quite a bit. The other key that would be good is the G (places you in A and Bb).
