Confusion reigns. As far as I'm aware a "squeeze box" is a colloquial term which relates to any musical instrument that is generally played by squeezing between the hands. The instrument in Jens photo would generally be termed a type of accordion or concertina (can't see the keys). World wide a harmonica is generally known as a mouth organ (which uses metal reeds), a "draw harmonica" is likely a descriptive term brought into local colloquial use. :-) Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
