HOT DAMNNNN man, almost pissed my pants. That was some unbelievable playing!!!!! I love your lessons but these outright jams take the cake.

[nickbarcenas]

hey ronnie i have left you several messages i really wish you will respond to them cause you seem to get back to everybody else i know you've probably been really busy lately but i have some important questions..that nobody else is asking either.. how to i play blues freestyling with out having to play along to tracks because i play by ear.. i listen to a shit load of blues but can't seem to come up with something off the top of my head it's weird..

[RonnieShellist]

@nickbarcenas it all starts, i think, by know what to play with music then when you

have the music/grooves in your head you can turn off the music and create as if

the music were still going...in time this should happen. try learning some simple

bass lines on the harp: 2d, 3d, 4d, 5b, 5d, 5b, 4d, 3d etc. to get started.

[Yonatron829]

what kind of harmonica do you have and how much did it cost?

[noobiest09]

I've been watching your videos for quite a while now and I'm planning to buy my first harmonica this coming week. I've browsed through some harmonicas for sale around my area and I'm planning to buy the Suzuki Bluesmaster. They also sell the Hohner Blues Harp but it costs a bit more and I've heard that wooden combs aren't really very good for beginners. So, would you recommend the Bluesmaster as a beginner harmonica?

[RonnieShellist]

@noobiest09 Yes, the bluesmaster is a good beginner harp, no question about it. I find it way easier to play than the Blues Harp by Hohner...that has always been a very leaky/airy harp in my experience.

[noobiest09]

@RonnieShellist

Thanks a lot man! Hopefully, I will be able to buy your lessons since I really want to learn. Awesome job on the video, by the way.

[stonedkid69]

@noobiest09 when i started playing harmonica i found Hohner special 20 works the best.

i also tried Lee Oskars but it wasnt nearly as fun as Hohner.

Lee Oskar felt very thin and kinda hard to old it in your hands.

Just in my personal opinion. it may work different for you.

[noobiest09]

@stonedkid69 Yeah, I've heard really good things about the Special 20. Unfortunately, it's not available in my area.

[DownTheWith]

That is just simply amazing man, I am actually planning on learning the harmonica and just wondering if you had any tips for a beginner. Thank you man for the excellent video.

[RonnieShellist]

@DownTheWith learn single notes, breathe easy from your diaphragm and have fun! try learning/memorizing a simple melody soon also.

[Nilssons]

Here's an amazed swede! this was so cool.

may i ask how long have you played the harmonica to be this good ? 

[RonnieShellist]

@Nilssons thanks! i have been playing 15 yrs now.

[KurtIsKool44]
