Hello folks, I need some help.

I thought I had seen a list somewhere that showed the factory tunings of all of the most common brands and models of diatonic harps, but now I can't find it anywhere.

Any ideas?

Thanks
jim

from another thread, posted by bbq bob

I have a chart of diatonic harp tunings at http://www.harmonicaspace.com and also at

http://deltafrost.com/diatonic-harmonica-tunings-an-update_topic6473_post63948.html

It is listed under the title Diatonic Harmonica Tunings - An Update and it includes the Sp20 and many more.

Overblow.com has an interactive version of Pat Missin's list, I think. You can also link through and order most of those tunings through Seydel.

Pat Missin's tunings list doesn't have the stock tunings of diatonics or chromatics, but what he lists are alternate types of tuning from circular (spiral) to Spanish to the tunings used by Magic Dick, diminished tuning for chromatics, and a lot more, and many of these tunings, for the average player may be a big learning curve.

If you want to order any of those tunings, Seydel will link you to that and then foward the order.
