Sucks to hear the edges are the same. Just getting into trying to learn the harmonica but you talking about the 008K in other videos makes me feel like not even bothering and if the edges were smoother in the Lightning it'd be worth the extra price just because of that.

LOVE THESE RIFFS. THANKYOU!! I will work out where best to play them. Assume they can be used on the 1 chord.
@HarmonicaRevolutionКүн бұрын
@@rocketgirllise for the most part yeah. Pay attention to where the anchor notes are, or the notes that start and each phrase. If the riff starts and ends on a chord tone of the G chord, it’s probably a good fit there. If those starting notes are matched up better with another chord, it might work better there. Even if the harmonies aren’t perfect, you can still play it, it just adds a felt sense of tension that eventually has to be released.

The nails on the Marine Band were a test of character as a kid I took many apart easily prying the covers off, not a big deal, easy to keep those reeds clean. I also followed my favorite bluesmen by soaking my harp in a glass of beer for a while before playing, soften up the wood etc etc etc

The problem is it takes 12 Harps to make a suit at 157 plus tax that's a lot of money I was real happy with the Lee Oscars I was real happy with just the Marine Band and there was another one I played Wang a harmonica when they first came out they lasted me for 25 years and I didn't have to do no adjustments and I played on stage everybody was happy

The harmonicas with nails are a good harp to start with for people and children just wanting to start learning. All of the hype over the latest high priced harmonicas is ridiculous. I've purchased several newer more expensive units and still love to have a less expensive Marine Band with nails in my pocket. The musicians who advanced the music didn't have all of the variety on the market today and were great musicians.

Too expensive, unless three young French girls are included, to be used separately, one time each. Don’t forget to include the harp.

Fun! Thanks for posting this. Question: is it OK to substitute 3 for -2 at the end of the single note lines? Seems like -3 3 would be easier than -3 -2.

I bought a crossover just recently and love it. I also got a Silver Creek harmonica for 15 bucks. If you do another review I'd like to know what you think. I'm no expert but I like it for 15 bucks seems worth it even though it rattles a bit on the second C

Hi Jonah, I could blow bend but couldn’t overblow until I saw this video and decided to open up one of my practice harps (East Top 008K) and tweak it just like you showed. The overblow came out on the first try! Amazing! It was all about the hardware, apparently. You’re right-if you can blow bend, you can overblow with the right harmonica.....Thank you for awesome tip. Wish you all the best!

Back in the 70's and even 80's Hohner made a lot of junk. I've bought so many diatonics that were bad right out of the box. Because of that, I play Seydel's. I just don't care for Seydel's Chromatics.

Harmonica music used to be a sign of hardship. That first one just sounded like straight up modern hobo on the money.
