<blockquote><div><div class="xg_user_generated"><p>Hi Man,</p>
<p>with the Harmonica, there are generally 2 styles: Straight Harp and Cross Harp</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Straight Harp:</p>
<p>The emphasis is on the blow and the Harp is in the same key as the song, this style is usually used for Jazz and Pop</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cross Harp:</p>
<p>The emphasis is on the suck and the Harp key is 4 away from the song key, so if you are playing in <strong>A Major</strong>, the harp should be in <strong>D Major</strong>, <strong>C</strong> would be <strong>F</strong>, <strong>G</strong> would be <strong>C</strong>, <strong>E</strong> would be <strong>A</strong> and so on. Cross Harp is style generally used for Blues.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I though break all of the rules, as I usually play Straight Harp style on a Cross Harp, ie: 4 notes away from the song key, but with the emphasis on the blow.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I use Honhor Pro Harps, they are Bassy!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hope this helps?</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>

<p>Hi!</p>
<p>Do you mean what chord is in your guitar? It's A major, so key is A major.</p>
