Hi David,

 

I keep hearing about the 3 'positions' which can be used on the harmonica, the latest being in the interview you did with Charlie McCoy where he reveals that he plays mainly in second position. Is there anywhere on the site which clearly explains the 'positions' as I'm not quite understanding what they are all about?

 

Thanks,

 

Mark.
