Re: [Harp-L] Hmmm... no!



Hi Claes,

You asked about "Harmonica for Dummies".  I recently bought if for reference and have been inpressed.  It looks like it would be a very good book for beginners and provides a good foundation for future development.

  Good morning

  I hope some of you have time for some questions from a beginner.

  Let me first introduce myself, Iâm Claes and will have a second go towards 
  learning to play. Iâm a bit older now and have a bit more patience, I donât 
  think I can learn to play like a pro in an hour any more ;) Even though I know a 
  little, I decided to start from scratch again.

  I've been thinking a little about different tunings, is it possible to get a 
  harp in low C without contacting a customer and spending to much? I was thinking 
  in lines "Hering 6148 baritono", but diatonic.

  Is over-blow a sort of bending on blow notes?

  Those 10-hole harps with slides, are those a form of diatonic that you press the 
  buttom instead bend (or over-blow)?

  Are any of you familiar with the "Harmonica for dummies"-book? Is it a good 
  starting point if you're mostly into blues? or is it mainly "single not 
  playing"?

  Well I told you I'm a beginner, some questions might seem "stupid" but I stick 
  by them and would like to know anyway.

   Claes
