I'm a new (60 year old) harmonica player this week and have really really enjoyed your teaching style. I look forward to playing well enough for my wife (she's a new ukulele player) and my beautiful little grand-daughters! Thanks again. Bobbo

@bobbylisavillegas6699 4 ай бұрын

Hey thank you for the lesson. I think I’m getting it, but I wanted to ask you a question. How do you draw without losing your breath? I tend to lose my breath quickly when I draw. Maybe I’m doing something wrong?? Is there a better technique?

@blackfishgaming7145 Жыл бұрын

Why do you use a C harmonica when the progression is in G? (I'm a guitarist trying to help my friend learn the blues on his harmonica). A simple explanation on what harp to use over different keys would be super helpful. Thanks!

@earlstewart9832 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you Tomlin, I'm brand new to the harmonica and like your presentation of lessons. I hope I've done the right thing, after reviewing several brands of harmonicas, I've purchased one for $40.00. Looking forward to your next lesson.

Hi Tomlin, thank you for your lessons! Mostly I play a chromatic harmonica and mostly I can translate your instructions for the chromatic harp. (Depends on the key you play.) Can you give some hints for chromatic harp players to get a better blusy sound?

@danielfaller5617 4 жыл бұрын

Ive never had a chromatic harmonica but I guess you should play the blues scale and for the sound try to bend the notes that are bent on the diatonic harp of just get a diatonic harmonica.

Excellent advice as always - one of my musical Scottish chums has also called this wonderful little instrument a "moothie" (mouth organ). Is that just him or a general Scottish name?

@boro4186 4 жыл бұрын

all righty so how do we expand on the base set here by adding 2-3 notes per progression? :) Also something I have huge difficulty learning is bending, you can't blues without bending :)

Hey Tomlin, could you answer this question for me please... If i want to improvise to this 12bar progression. Do i have to use the notes that are in the chord being played? Say the first 4 bars was 'C' chord , am i 'only' allowed to use the notes from this chord? Thanks !

@TomlinHarmonica 3 жыл бұрын

No you can use those notes but you can also use notes from the Blues Scale and major pentatonic scale (unless a minor blues). There are very few rules.

@TomlinHarmonica 4 жыл бұрын

@@JBCavern That's a great question JBCavern. You are not playing chords when you play single notes. Instead, you are playing the root note of each chord. The guitar is playing the chords and you are playing the root note which is the strongest fundamental tone in the chord. Hope that helps. T
