    I would need surgery to do the U block. Nonetheless, another great lesson Paul.

    Thanks bud! I’m really enjoying it. I’m definitely hooked. Started about 10 months ago. Taking some lessons on line now too. Have about 8 harmonicas now. SP20 and a few others. Just got my first Seydel in key A. It sure is nice. Appreciate the videos you post. They are super helpful!

    Thanks! Great video. I’m fairly new to the game but prefer tongue blocking. The one is called a 5’th because C and G obviously 5 apart I’m assuming? So the E is the 3’rd of those three holes? So much to learn! What a process!

      That’s the kiddie! Thanks for watching, always more to learn even after 36 years! Such a great journey 😎

    Your Octaves are just gorgeous. They are giving me TROUBLE. I hit them sometimes but I still have to move my lips out further or flatten my tongue muscles more to the left or right... and I have been practicing quite a bit! Is there a trick to doing this? I'm putting the Harmonica way back in my mouth so that my top lip is over most of the upper cover of the Harmonica. This is what quite a few videos suggested... is there another way you might know?💡💥🎶🎙🤙🏽🤔

      Sounds to me like you are doing the right things, persevere and the muscle memory will kick in eventually. 👍

    The -2 thru -5 draw is still considered a split? -2 and -5 are different notes though? Thanks! I’m just trying to figure all this out!

    • @PaulGillings

      It is still a split and quite widely used, the note however are slightly discordant.
