Editorial policy is to let the enthusiasts write about their interests. This has led to a balance of interest in the magazine that caters for all tastes. Policy is also to let contributors style stand, which makes for a more varied and interesting read. Editorial changes are made only if absolutely necessary.

In order to make the magazine interesting for readers, the harmonica community, including the club members, is invited to submit articles of up to 1000 words for publication. Reviews, interviews and people profiles should be accompanied by a photograph of the person - portrait is preferred (meaning tall) rather than landscape. Generally photographs (or machine readable versions) are welcome. Space is often limited, so material might not always be used, but the editor likes to have a choice. Text should be PC machine readable, and there is a strong preference for plain text or real text format (rtf). Text can be cut and pasted into an email, or sent as an attachment.

The magazine is printed in black and white, on gloss paper, with some colour pages, mainly for adverts.

The size and number of pages of Harmonica World is basically fixed by the limits imposed by the postal charges.
