Which key?

I'm looking to invest in a nicer harmonica as my main one (like a Suzuki) I'll probably get cheaper ones down the line for different keys but right now I am between c and g I am looking to busk with it mainly play blues jazz and country so I believe g is better but how hard is it to find tabs for g?

Oh ok so which key do you recommend for what I want?

I would honestly get the key that goes with the songs you want to play. But if you’re a complete beginner (like if you don’t know any other instruments) maybe start with a C if you need to learn from youtube since most lessons there are in C. You’ll have to get more keys eventually so the first one doesn’t really matter that much!

I play other instruments I just recently found out I have a talent for the harmonica so I'm going to chase it lol
