  • Hey J, I dont mean to be rude, but did you realize you got a little distracted and didn't reveal the rest of the scale in the lower register? After you described the 3 draw bent "a full step" and then to 3 Draw...you dont really finish the scale. How to finish the scale???? Please man, let me know!!!

  • Are the scales the same on any key?

  • so let me get this straight you played an A major scale in three positions on a D harp

  • great lesson! do you play any other instrument? greets =)

  • Hi Jason, is anyone out there actively integrating the middle octave blues scales into first postion blues?

    I've kind of got control over this myself but would like to find other people who are doing this.

  • Ah yes, I remember Elvis Presley's great song about the harp, Two-Blow Mississippi Flash!

    Sorry, I'll go away now, lol...

  • Great lesson, I had discovered this about using diferent positions in a blues progresion, but I didnt know how to get major scale in 3rd position in low octave, now i got. Thanks for your educational work. I guess that if u write a book or method with this and the intermediate advanced and advanced advanced teaching u got here in youtube its gonna be the best harmonica book ever.

  • the tough thing about playing major 2nd and 3rd is the overbending stuff, hope to get them someday. Up here harmonicas are getting expensive and is a better choice to have like the necessary for playing all the position. I actually play some 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 12th. If a master them, playing major and minor in each, then I wont need to buy all the harps.

  • Can't believe I never favourited this vid before now. It's pure gold in terms of tuition.

  • You rock. Thanks. I'm trying to learn and before I found your vids all I was finding was old dudes playing Danny Boy on their Echo Harps... Chacun son gout. Keep posting and I'll keep watching.
