: Hi guys,
: I've got a little problem--I own only one harmonica, and it's a chromatic, and I am prevented from purchasing any further harmonicas(long story, don't ask).
: My problem is that I like the blues and I don't know how to play it on the chromatic. Especially chords that I can just 'chug' with.
: Now, I know it's impossible to get the 'wail' of a diatonic blues harp, but can any of you give me any form of help in learning how to play blues on this instrument? I own a Weltmeister Chromatic.
: Thanks.
Sorry, The Chromatic just was not made to play the blues, but you can get still get a great sound,just not a down home chug. Save up 20 bones and get a good diatonic, Take Care, Big Jim
