Guys could be very secretive about what they used and how they got their sound. I am sure Walter went as far as to tell his band mates not to talk about it. Which is why Dave Meyers wasn't given up the goods even after Walter's death. All out of respect. Van Halen also told half truths and sometimes downright lies about how he got his sound.

What rubbish. His Brother played with Miles Davis. IF YOU PLAY HARP MAKE SURE YOU PLAY INALL 12 KEYS overwise what the heck have you been doing all these years. I cut in all in 7 years I was already a modern jazz player on other instruments but this is all basic nonsense. Go away SHED and learn to really play.

I saw Charlie play in London in 2010 and that’s why I took up the harp. And now I get to study with David as my teacher. So this video summarizes my journey.

Hi. I am a retired engineer who has an idea for a new kind of reed based instrument (prototype works!) and would love to talk with you how I might fabricate some custom reed plates and fasten reeds to them. Would be happy to compensate you for your time. How might I contact you?

Sir question : I read from Arzaq (I think ..) that when a reed was gapped , it was better to wait 1-2 days before closing the harmonica because of metal (brass in our case) strain relaxation. I didn’t believe too much but …I must say that it did happen on my MB on the 2 reed blow. I had gapped it the way I wanted . But it wasn’t consistent. I had to go to work etc. 2 days later , I tried it…and voila! Simply gorgeous she is now . Coincidence? Comments?

Hello ikust007, we both get around don't we?! Regarding your recent experience--it was no coincidence. I am in the process of formulating my thoughts for a future HARPSMITH Benchcraft KZbin episode, specifically addressing "Ductility" properties of harmonica reeds. How to use Ultrasonic Treatment for stress relaxation after reed work (tuning, gapping, etc.) to encourage reed longevity. But for now, my recommendation is to allow your harmonica to sit idle for one week, then verify the tuning and playability before securing the Cover Plates. Your HARPSMITH, Kinya

Thank you for addressing this touchy (but needed to mentioned) topic. Yes, soundcheck and getting the amps closer to ear level with proper stage mix - 100% spot on. A real 'band' that plays gigs together with a setlist and stable personnel HAS to have a consensus about what is it: is it a power trio? They might not want a harp player. Vocalist / guitarist who likes the tone color and shadings that blues harmonica excels at? (Muddy Waters / Chicago classic sound): this can be a perfect fit. Getting less experienced players to listen to how Jr Watson, Jimmy Vaughn, Myers Bros back up a harp player can be wonderful mutual growth. Everyone listens better and appreciates everyone's input. If the band is built around a singer its the harp player's job to listen and DO NOT step on the vocal...of course a nice pad / following chord changes can sweeten the mix immeasurably. Pulling a person aside really helps, esp singers: "hey how does this fit?" "this isn't clashing is it?" Genuine appreciation for everyone's contribution means alot. Communication can be nonverbal as well but having (or creating) a role needs to come from some consensus. I heard a trio once with harp playing very low chunky rhythm...later he switched to bass gtr. It was wonderful Earplugs (one ear?) to deal with a loud member / best monitors & placement help too. Thanks again for your video.

I misspoke concerning 'amps closer to ear level'. It can be an option but pointing things in a reasonable direction helps...again less experienced players may only be listening to 'their part'. The bull in the china shop guy can ruin a gig. I recall the joy of shit-canning loud over-playing no-dynamics drummer(s) - once after the 1st set. Listening is a skill - when playing with great musicians it's a major reward of the gig. But hey - all of us has overplayed so try to finesse the situation. Players need to learn somewhere. However Miles Davis advice against hiring old MF's has some truth. Being an old guy myself I'm trying to be alert to the common mistakes Gary and David describe.
