Hello!

If this isn't a problem with my harmonica, most liked it was already answered, but I couldn't find a search tool, so I'm asking, possibly again.

I just started and I'm still on the first level of LoA, in the middle of the study music, but I noticied something.

Even that I didn't need to draw on the hole 2 yet, just blow, I found out I can't draw on it. The sound gets all weird, almost doesn't sound at all.

I noticied that if i do it harder or softer, or try to change the way I draw, it eventually gets to make some not totally bad sound, and the harpninja/bendometer says I'm inconsistently bending it to the second note, but I can never make it play the first note.

Do I have a faulty harmonica, or drawing on hole 2 of the A harmonica is really tricky and something that we will learn later?

If its a broken harmonica, any ideia how to get it fixed? I bought it in November I think.

Thanks and sorry for my english!
