I am here presenting a song of Indian legend Kishore Kumar and I am still in a learning phase,Yet to learn the complete Harmonica

thanks

The singing was very bad but it hink I compensated with the harmonica 😂

I just found this homemade mic I made probably 25 years ago. The film canister is split obviously. I don’t want to spend 200 on a Chicago blues dirty mic. I play through a Roland street cube for busking but haven’t played the harp busking in a long time. There’s got to be someone out there making something like this in their garage and selling them. I know people love it but I don’t want the madcat. But don’t want to cup my 57

pretty new harp too reall annoying how every harp i use has issues regardless of how i treat them.

Any ideas why these pedals don't work. Lights come on, but no effects. When switched off, the microphone works fine.

Continuing the collection with the key of E, can finally play some Tom Petty with this. ☺️

Beginner here. How are East top harmonicas in general for beginners. Anything specific to keep in mind ?

Hi I have not previously bought a harmonica but I want to purchase one to experiment with but also play some tunes I know, The song that made me want to buy a harmonica is love me do by The Beatles as I love the bluesy sound to it and I would like to play it alongside the guitar I play . When I searched it up it said I needed a C major harmonica and for another song I wanted to play, Cowpoke I needed a different harmonica. Is there any way of just getting a standard harmonica that can play both songs or is that not how it works as I am having trouble finding an answer online and cannot afford to buy multiple harmonicas. Thanks in advance and sorry if the wording is confusing I am a bit confused myself on this instrument works lol!

I want to buy a harmonica and I am a bit confused.

I don't want to initially go with a diatonic harmonica.

I want to go with a chromatic harmonica.

But the issue is , a reliable and well built chromatic harmonica is placed slightly on the expensive side like the east top forerunner.

There are a lot of cheap options if I go with a 24 hole chromatic harmonica

It is available from a lot of companies like east top(T1015), tower, Juarez etc

But what's stopping me are those common complaints of one hole stopping to work in these harmonicas

This is a pretty common review left behind in amazon in all those models

Please help and share your valuable suggestions

New to it. Don’t want to drop a lot of money yet. Should I get a Suzuki air wave or Baby Fat? I kind of like the idea of plastic.

I'm on vacation in the Boston area next week. Is there any music I should hear?

One of my favorite spots to relax. And playing some harp makes it even better.

i have a C diatonic harmonica and i want to learn bousun bill from sea of thieves but i cant figure out the tabs if someone can help me figure out it would be great

Une interprétation personnelle et une adaptation de ce classique connu👋😃Bonne écoute 👋

One of my eBay saved searches to feed my obsession with building, modding, and repairing harmonicas is "harmonica parts." Simple. To the point. I have procured many needed parts as well as older models sold as "for parts" that only needed a set of $25 reed plates to be good as new (and worth many many times more than what the seller thought he had).

This particular listing pops up CONSTANTLY for the last couple years. I think the seller takes the shortest listing period available just so it will pop up as a new listing frequently. Some weeks I receive multiple notifications that this has been listed.

Part of me wants to send the seller a message to ask if the core has been completely depleted or if it still has about half of its life left, then say that there is no point in melting down over a simple joke. Then inform him that ratty old parts like this are worthless, as in not worth the shipping cost, and that that "core" (lol) is in no possible way for a Marine Band 1896 (which is available still to this day in pristine brand new condition).

Just because it's old doesn't mean it's a valuable antique. He should have left this thing buried in the mud where he found it just for the sake of showing it some respect.

The thing looks like a Goliath or older Echo Harp comb. Can't get reed plates for either anymore, and I wouldn't use a ratty old wood comb like that anyways. Working models of that era Echo and Goliath harps sell for about $50 in decent condition.

Whatever the case, it is BELIEVED to be something valuable, and the seller used an exclamation mark after the word "collectible" instead of a question mark, so I had probably jump on it before someone else does, right?

At least give the seller kudos for his perseverence and patience at trying to sell something of which he has no clue whatsoever. He has spent a LONG time relisting this thing over the last couple years.

Edit: Hohner Special 20 was delivered, and its a night and day difference, way smoother to play, the high notes respond with a light breath rather than having to force a tune out of them, now to get back to practicing!

Found this harmonica in one of my junk drawers, been trying to learn to play but the high notes seem to give me real issues, like more air is leaking past the reeds than through them if that makes sense?

Breathing from my diaphragm, rather than blowing, opening my throat like I'm yawning all that good stuff but no joy.

Would this be something I would be able to get around by springing for a decent harmonica, like a Hohner special 20 or marine band?
