[Harp-L] Stainless steel harmonicas



Readers may not known that there are 2 main types of stainless steel, the 300 series, (non magnetic) and the cheaper 400 series (magnetic). From the point of view of a player they should note that while the 300 series (having a nickle content) is unlikely to ever rust, this is not the case with the 400 type. Being cheaper the 400 series is frequently used for so called stainless item, eg kitchen ware, and will easily rust: an easy test with a magnet will alert you to which is used on a harmonica.
