We have a new student at BluesHarmonica.com! Study along with beginning student Sharon Meheula (soon to be Sharon Barrett... yes, my fiancé) as she takes private lessons with me. Each lesson is video recorded in its entirety—giving you valuable insight into the same material you're studying on the site. Sharon will also be checking in between lessons—allowing you to feel as if you have a harmonica buddy going through the same learning process. You can see her lessons here https://www.bluesharmonica.com/contributor/sharon-barrett

Fender Mustang Series of Amps with Richard Hunter

I did a review on one of the Fender Mustang amplifiers recently. Richard Hunter has spent a tremendous amount of time getting to know the entire Mustang series, so I asked him to do a couple videos demonstrating the various models of amps and how to use the FUSE software for us. Richard also sells patches for the amps. If you would like to save the time of experimenting yourself, visit his website http://www.hunterharp.com/buy-richard-hunters-huntersounds-patch-set-for... to purchase. You can see Richards videos here https://www.bluesharmonica.com/amp_reviews
