Hi Jonah, curious are you tongue blocking or lip pursing? It's a bit tricky getting the 1 when tongue blocking

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

I tongue block, but when I get down to hole 1, I remove my tongue. Some people switch their tongue to the other side, I find that too awkward so I just take my tongue off.

Hey Jonah, Great lesson. Thank you. Just a heads up. In the body of the video for the D cord in the tabs for the high octave you show it ending on 4 blow (C). Should that not be a 4 draw (D)?

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

Yes, that would be a mistake. The correct tabs are in the description.

Hey Jonah! I’m considering getting an A harp (and I’m especially interested in trying out a “tin sandwich” style, in contrast to the Lee Oskar I have) and since I value your opinion, which of these would you suggest: a Hohner Crossover or a Suzuki Manji Sky?

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

I like them both for different reasons. Crossover feels great, very raspy, airtight, and has a nice thick tone. The Manji sky doesn’t feel quite as airtight or powerful, but the thinness of the reeds is an interesting feeling and sound, and it has a particular charm to it and better playability. I don’t think you can go wrong with either, but if I had to compare them side-by-side I would choose the crossover.

[@StarQueenEstrella]

@@HarmonicaRevolution Thanks! Which would you say is better at blow bends? That’s part of the reason why I want an A harp. (That and it’s the key I need for, among other songs, “Roadhouse Blues”.)

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

@@StarQueenEstrella they feel different. Manji is probably easier.
