Dear David,

 

in the instruction video about positions, you say that the second position a fifth up the scale of the harmonica (so when 1st position is A, 2nd is E, when 1st is C, second is G). However, in your position chart (http://www.bluesharmonica.com/sites/bluesharmonica.com/files/private/Pos...), all the second positions seem te be up only 4 (so when 1st is A, is says that 2nd position is D). Is this a mistake, or am i missing out on something?

 

With kind regards, René

Hello René. You're reading

Hello René. You're reading the chart backwards... the band key is on the left and the harmonica key you play on in a given position is at right.
