  • when you say "overblow" you been bending the notes... right? Because as far as i'm concerned, overblow is something you can only do on the last 3 holes. Plus i got those notes drawbending. I'm just a bit confused.

  • No that is not what I'm talking about. An overblow is not a bend, it is when you actually pop the draw read a minor third above the note of the hole your blowing. check tenholedotcom 

    and overblowdotcom for more info. Your simply reffering to blow bends. That should help.

  • sounds like a friend of Bill w

  • What gave it way??? You rock!

  • i can't get that sound, also i have a harmonica that says "C" is this a problem? :P

  • No, no problem , But get more harps and keep at it...you'll get it.

  • @coachusrey Try to learn it by ear. :) It'll help a lot more in the future.

  • Dude, I have been trying to play and replay this video over and over. You are killing me! Keep it simple, dude! Just give us the tabs for the major pentatonic scale in all 3 octaves, then the minor pentatonic perhaps in another video, then the blues scale in another separate video.  This video has some great licks in it, but for someone trying to get those scales down...it is BRUTAL!!!!!

  • Are the scales the same on any key?

  • press 2: condom

    press 3: blerp

    press 4: cock

  • Your boyfriend? Oh my Gosh!!! lol

  • That Satan & Adam shirt rocks!! T-Dub

  • @Ghettobird1990 nope' it's good.

  • Jason, Strikes me that playing the first position middle octave blues scales is an academic exercise and nobody is actually doing it. I've listened to Kim Wilson and Lee Sankey playing first position and they avoid the middle octave. Who's really doing this?

  • Hi Jason! You said to go back and find the other video on pentatonic but I looked through your page and couldn't find it! How annoying! Help a rookie out man?! I need to learn pentatonics!!!

  • @Muzikman127 harmonica, I'm starting to teach harmonica lessons face to face. I can't thank you enough for all I've learned from you- without your lessons I don't think I'd be playing harp today. Now I've actually started teaching :D
