  • 4 blows get job done.

  • Hey! , how are you? this kind of lessons are just great, basically because what you are telling on this video, you can apply to any instrument, i mean, that s the hole thing! that's how the good music works, just mixing scales, a pretty one, and a bad one! hahaha, thats probably the best example how to play...i just bought a pro harp hohner , my 2nd time on the harmonica, haha , damn this lesson would be so great 9 years ago when a just start playn guitar xD . Cheers!

  • Such a massive help - you seperate the notes into clear expressions. Brilliant teaching thanks.

  • @szaman69 exactly! :)

  • Man thanks so much for this lesson - its actually explains so much! - as for the "mixing of the scales" ,p

  • Incredible!

  • awesome technician and teacher!

  • @hippieman128 Blow bends and Over blows are two totally different things. Technically you can't overblow 7-10 (you can overdraw them though). In general, an overblow is a half step higher than the draw reed of the same hole, though Jason can bend the overblow past that. Jason, Adam Gussow and Chris Michalek all of pretty helpful videos on how to overblow. Chris' video on overblowing was most helpful to me.

    Great video, Jason.

  • how the hell do you overblow the five? i can only do 7-10 and sometimes a 6.

  • Wow... excellent instructional piece for me. I've been playing harmonica since I was a kid with no formal music training, and I didn't realize what I was doing until now.
