Internationally-known for its harmonicas, Hohner doesn't like to discriminate. Especially against little people. Measuring just 3.5cm long, the world's smallest harmonica plays the whole octave in C-Major and costs an equally small $23. [LatestBuy]

I'd rather have my Hohner Puck. Sure, it's bigger, but it has a full set of reeds, it's cheaper too. I just wish they made them in more keys than C and G.

I've got one of those little buggers. It's playable, but more of a novelty. I agree with Ant on the Big 6, it's a true instrument.

The Little Lady. Mine has a little red plastic box, and isn't on a keychain or necklace. I wonder if i could seal the comb and do reedwork on it? 8'). How about a Buddha version?

I actually really like my Puck. It's a full 10 hole harp. Sure, it's a little shrill, but I can play anything on it and good cupping takes a lot of the shrillness out.

There's a good trick you can do with a Little Lady. Palm it in your hand, close your mouth, and hold a regular harp up to you ear. Strain and make it look like your trying to blow out your mouth, but you're also keeping your mouth shut. Then put your hand with the Little Lady over your mouth, like you're holding your lips shut. And then blow a note through the little lady. People will think you forced air out your ear and its blowing a note on your regular harp.

Haha, I will have to try that! At least my 5 and 6 year old might buy into it.

Lol. If you are never going to use the harp again there are probably lots of weird places you could convince people you where blowing out of!
