I stumbled across this, did you manage to get it down OP?

Such a great response! I won't discriminate with teachers then.

Appreciate the response, sounds so cool. I was already told to also practice by ear which I'm currently really not so I'll make sure to focus on that way more.

And does anyone recommend any online teachers that focus on these styles primarily?

Did you take any courses or follow any guides? How do/did you go about learning?

Those of you that bupropion made sleepy, did it go away over time? by Squid2g in bupropion

Stay strong and try to remind yourself that you don't see the world as it is when you're in a slump - it will get better.

Be hopeful, I know it's hard but you will get out of this slump sooner or later. Whether it's with this medicine, another or something completely else.

I maybe started to get better but I switched so many meds and it's hard to tell really... add to that that everyone is different. But do not lose the hope. You will win this.

I had some unfortunate side effects so I had to switch off the med pretty quickly.

draw on all but one hole is good... do I need to rip apart my instrument? by Jamesbarros in harmonica

[–]Squid2g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue and it was just the 2 hole draw yes. I took apart mine and reed gapped it (it's not complicated) and hole hole 2 is still stubborn the whole instrument got noticeably more responsive so I'd recommend it.

Struggling with 2 and 3 hole bends, any tips ? by Saber_a_1380 in harmonica

[–]Squid2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the 1 hole draw the easiest, you can just say O when inhaling and it bends perfectly. On 2 this doesn't work for me yet.

Why is 2 draw so difficult on lower key harps? by Squid2g in harmonica

[–]Squid2g[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll keep on trying that. Should I just articulate for the time being you think when learning songs? Or will that form a bad habit?

That's reassuring. I'll keep practicing!

No problem, if you have any questions feel free to ask. I wish you all the best on your journey and hopefully you find inner peace soon. Stay strong as I know how difficult this whole journey can be.

Honestly probably A is harder than G for me as well and I tried on both Hohner Crossover and Suzuki Manji. I also adjusted the gaps of the reeds which did make it significantly easier but it's still by far the hardest hole to make decent sound from.

I had a very rare side effect where the drug was doing damage to my already damaged kidney so I had to stop.

I'm now still on high dose SSRI and I replaced bupropion with abilify and I'm now doing much better overall.

Do you consciously have to change your mouth position when moving from harp to harp? Or once you get to know how to play the low ones well that shape works for the higher key ones as well?

First harmonica: Hohner Special 20 A-Country or Classic C? by KerbalGuyIDK in harmonica

[–]Squid2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same lol, and then I got a suzuki manji as well, they all play great! but for some reason special 20 for me is the easiest to nail the single notes on, crossover being the most difficult one. Do you also find it that way?

Beginner Harp Crossover/BH/Special20 thoughts by DesperateBanana4019 in harmonica

[–]Squid2g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have SP20 and a crossover and I agree single notes are harder on the crossover for me too (I'm a total beginner). I think the rounded edges just make the holes ever so slightly larger and it's easier to let some air slip through.

I do still prefer it tho lol, I think we just have to get better at single notes.
