I use the Eb harp more frequently than my E harp.

Eb. Useful for play second position with horn players in Bb. (or third position for Fminor)
Very, very rarely use an E. Unless you are doing folk/country first position stuff.
Probably use my B more often.

Yup, echoing all of the above, get one for 2nd position over Bb. I use it often-E, not so much, but part of the keyset+ that I always carry, just in case.

It's never either/or, just later. From your posts, sounds like you'll be compelled to get one sooner or later. I'm glad to have an E so I can play along with Mysterious Woman Blues by Blind Mississippi Morris, which is a great song to learn. Haven't really had a reason to play it much otherwise.

"Blues in the Morning" is a great Big Walter tune played on an E harp. I love that song...
