Suzuki Harpmaster Harmonica

Yesterday i finally bought a harmonica. First i touched on the instrument last year at a party. That made it. Now i have a m. suzuki harmonica in the key of c. I bet it won't take long before i post a new track, with a harmonica solo. heh.

Here's a bit from the suzuki website:

The Harpmaster features an easy to play, free blowing design with its solid ABS comb and focused note holes. The bendable laser tuned brass reeds produce the clarity and rich, mellow tones you would expect from much more expensive harmonicas. The classically shaped reed covers offer the look and feel of the traditional harmonica and they are built from durable polished stainless steel. The Harpmaster will provide you with years of proven performance. The Harpmaster includes a hard shell carrying case.
