Ok I been Playing Harmonica for a month now. I have a key of C older Special 20 that I bought new years ago and never had the time to learn. I learn Real real fast. I play 8 different instruments. Any way now I have the time. I Bought A special 20 progresive in the key of A and it was out of key so I sent it back. Then I tried a Harpmaster and it was hard to get any volume out so I sent it back. Then I bought 2 Crossovers. One was out of tune the other the 6 draw was hard to get anything out of, and when I did it sounds like a goose. Next I thought I would try a sydel or a lee oskar. continue reading...

Hello All;

I d love your grain of salt on this.

I am finishing level one, in one week I ll have ¨walk with me¨ nailed down.

Now, I am very curious about Chromatic harmonica so I was thinking in getting one and fast forward to Level 3 to get a taste of Chromatic and then go back to Diatonic in level 2.

Is it advisable to do this?

Thanks

Big nosed blues harp player

Hello Everybody; 

My name is Steve from Switzerland. I have just signed up for the classes. I have been playing for 7 months now.

Here is my question now: I have a big nose, not freakingly big but big enough so that when I hold my Marine Band my nose is always on the way with my fingers. Is that something normal or I am not holding the harmonica well?

Thanks;

Steve

ok.  hace to ask what I'm not seeing.  I dowloaded the level 1 pdf for the written portion and I can open and type in it but I'm only seeing a single page with half a dozen or so exercises on it.  

am I seeint it all, or is there more than a single page and I'm just doing something wrong?
