Thanks man, this was a great starting point. Most of the other instructional videos really didnt help me know where to start or really teach me anything useful. This gave me a real solid base to work from. Thank again.

[Circletwice]

You know, by the looks of it, with its lousy quality and all, your video looks like just another of those half-assed how-to videos that just don't teach you anything... BUT! I really learned a great deal rom this short little clip! You presented things in a much easier and simpler way than many other dieso on this subject that I've found! Thank you very much! :-)

[Circletwice]

Gyyeh, sorry for the lazy typos.

[asutn]

Thank you so much, this is the first video I watch before I go out and buy the harmonica.

[anyafes2595]

mine too! haha.

i told myself to go watch a video or something first before buying one to practice with.

how's your harmonica practice doing?

[erapoza]

thanks fo yo help

[moopaforce]

My best advice would be to not be afraid to not sound good for the first 6 months of playing. Have confidence and believe you're the man or woman, and you'll progress faster than the ones who doubt themselves.

[dudekevin667]

this whole hole blow & suck thing sounds so dirty

[Borusse5]

nice!

[TheBirdy2fly]

diatonic by the way

[TheBirdy2fly]

i bought a harmonica in the key of "c" i learned from a lot of different people that thats the best for a beginner also a d f

[bunyhump]

I have an A harmonica is that any good?

[chopinQ8]

CAN anyone please tell me what kind Harmonica is this ? i have D

[hunter65416]

could you please make some more of these learning to play the harmonica videos cos ive looked at the other videos and i actully managed to get somewhere with this video

[weggy100]

I just bought a harp last week, was looking for something exactly like this. This'll keep me busy for a couple weeks.

Thanks a million man!

[TriangleSquare52]

dude

im not going to lie

this is a badass lesson

i knew they're was a reason why i kept this

the chicks will dig this

[outlawmadebolder]

i only have an e reed, is that any good for blues

[hiddeninromance]

soso good!

i can only play heart of gold! but i want to get much better, i just keep running out of breath! haah it frustrates me a little! I've playe dguitar for like 11 years and bass for 15...can play piano and mandolin and im vanquished by a harmonica!

Any tips for breath control, I only have a cheap harmonica, could that make blowing/inhaling more taxing?

thanks

[kaukaunapix]

Lil' Rev's the best. Saw his uke workshop this last weekend at the uke festival and it was by far the most well taught and informative of them all (and that's saying a lot). Great stuff. Buy his CD Fountain of Uke 2. Killer.

[USAFHawk1]

Thanks Man! makes me wanna start playing!
