~~While~~ standard harmonicas can play certain phrases in maqam Rast but not the full scale~~, harmonicas~~ in Steve Baker special tuning, spanish tuning and country tuning allow to play a full Rast scale, both ascending and descending ~~(which is different!)~~, on second position (starting on G on a C harmonica).

Standard diatonic harmonicas can play a full Rast scale, both ascending and descending (which is different!), on first position (starting on C on a C harmonica), but only in the third octave (highest range of the harmonica). (A little difficult.)

In the lower ranges (first and second octave), standard harmonicas can play certain phrases in maqam Rast but not the full ascending scale. The descending form is possilbe on second position (starting on G on a standard harmonica) and third position (starting on D on a standard harmonica).

Harmonicas in Steve Baker special tuning, spanish tuning and country tuning allow to play a full Rast scale, both ascending and descending, on second position (starting on G on a C harmonica).
