Why don’t most harmonica players know how great 12th position is for playing blues and country music? The overlooked key of 5 draw (F on a C harp) is FULL of sweet-sounding bends and licks- a real winner! If you haven’t tried it, this video will start you off on the right foot.
The harmonicas I use in this video:
(For demonstrating Just Intonation: Herring Master Blues in C)
Hohner Golden Melody in C
Hohner Crossover in C, customized by Joe Filisko
