Jason,

My chromatic goes 1234123456789,10,11,12.

Should I just ignore the bottom 4 holes while trying to get used to this?

[jasonricci]

No way play them too! Have fun and just go crazy with it till you get use to it!

Thanks!

That melody you play @ 7:15 is hip and the line you play @ 8:00 is even hipper! As soon as I get some practice time in I'm gonna steal it.

Nice vacuum too. I prefer a canister vacuum though.

Jason. Sensational sound. I have no knowledge of chromatics and play only diatonics so enjoyed hearing what a chromatic can do.

How would the Marine Band 364 Soloist compare to the chromatic you are playing? Would it have the same functionality, excluding the notes accessible via the button?

How would this sound with a bunch of draw notes?

This video gave me the last push to buy my first chromatic :)

Thank you Jason,

Stevie

YOu just inspired me to buy myself another Chromatic.

I had one... But, someone stole it from me.

THe way you have fun playing is just... Golden.

[RlzzMRginC]

you should stick to the diatonic

[eugeneglassmenagerie]

Thank You very much, this is a great video if you could do more on the Chromatic that would be awesome. There's not to much beginner stuff to help out with like a Paul Delay style or good tip's on how to add the flavor like you added to the blues scale.
