A bout three years back I got a cheap Gold Cup brand harmonica with a book of tabbed songs with the sheet music under it, stuff like Camptown Races and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. I loved it, partly because I liked being able to play music, and partly because I liked the fact that the tabs made me feel like I had my own little language.
I put down the harp for a while because I decided to learn guitar...which made me decide to learn keyboard...and I read in a book somewhere about the penny whistle and decided to give that a try...and when looking through the info on penny whistles I saw something on harmonica and couldn't wait to give the harmonica another go. (So now I am learning Guitar, Keyboard, Penny Whistle, and Harmonica)
So I bought a Honer Bluesband and a Harmonica for Dummies book, and put together a notebook with all my old papers. While looking through harmonica websites I found this forum, and hope that I will be able to find it of some use. Any advice will be appreciated!
I've been having trouble with my 2 draw. I am pretty sure it's not me because all the blows work and all the other draws work. I opened it up and there was no debris in it, I keep it in a hard case. Any ideas would be much appreciated!
Dreamer, Look at John Broecker's answer to my Apr 22 "2 Hole Draw" question in "Beginner's Questions." Also look at "Playing #2 & #3 Hole Draw" under "Tech. Info. & Advice" under "Harmonicas" in Hohner's site: www.hohnerusa.com. Also take peek at "How Do I Get A Good Sound Out Of 2 Hole Draw . . . . I Know It's Broken . . . ." at beginner'sharmonica_html on Adam Gussow's site www.modernbluesharmonmmica.com I'm a couple of month's into learning and had the same problem. hope this helps, good luck, Glenn.
