Muscle memory comes with time. I had posted a trick that I used to do earlier in this thread...

First hold a chord, strum, ensure that all your strings are fretted properly and none of them sound dull while stumming, then spread out your fingers, replace your fingers in the same chord position, rinse and repeat.

I know that this would get boring after sometime, therefore, in order to motivate yourself, look up chords for a song and practice those chords with the above exercise till you get reasonable good with it.

One easy song you can try is Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here.

slowing down might help the muscle memmory/transitioning from one chord to another,like practice in low bpms(with metronome/backing track)
increase bpm as you progress:)
btw how long have you been playing?

It's called a looper. Most multi effect pedals have it. It allows you to record a short piece of music and allows you to overdub. A good example is the Digitech RP255 with it's 20 second looper.

As for the harmonica,Special 20 seems the best for a beginner since bending notes with it are super easy,has great response and the reeds are made up of plastic which will last more.
