I think I broke it!
My dad brought me a A harp and watched a lot of videos to play it, but when I tried to play the 2nd and 3rd draw it made a really weird sound, so I cleaned it but it continues with that weird sound, I don't know what to do, the sound is as if I were playing the whistle from a truck!I would be so grateful if any of you can help me. By the way, English is not my mother tongue, sorry if I had any mistake.
Hello Nicolle, it is terrific to hear from you!
Have you had an opportunity to compare it to another Diatonic harmonica in the same Key of A?
I strongly recommend you few the following two Harp Tech Study videos:

Please stay in touch so that we may learn of your progress.
