Though this is demonstrated on the chromatic harmonica, the principles are also the same for the diatonic harmonica. As Steve Baker states in the video lesson, learning how to gap is essential. It's common for a harmonica to have one or two reeds not responding the way you desire, and this is the quickest way to adjust it.
