MELODY MAKER IN THE KEY OF D
From low to high the melody makers are keyed as follow. D, E, G, A, C. The C is really an F harp played in cross harp. So if you want to play in the key of D, you have to move your tabs up an octave and use a Melody Maker in the key of D. This tab actually turned out best.
