About the Tremolo Harmonica

Is a 24 hole harmonica good for beginners?
no. As a kid, he may well have played a tremolo, but the note layout is considerably different from both a diatonic & a chromatic. If you want to get him something a little bit better/easier to play, take a look at a valveless 10/40 chromatic, they're fairly cheap, but a good starter chrom.
What are the notes on a chromatic harmonica?
It's useful to note that C is the highest tuned chromatic harp. The order of keys, from lowest to highest is as follows: C Tenor (low) D (low), E (low), F(low), G, Ab, A, Bb, B, C, Unlike diatonics, the keys of low D, E and F are not referred to as 'low', as there is no equivalent standard D, E or F above C.
