How to play the blues in 12th position on the diatonic harmonica

Short little harmonica lesson! Or maybe more a demonstration. Anyway - 12th position on the diatonic is awesome for getting a jazzier sound when playing blues. 2 draw whole step bend is your root note.
I recorded this video as a livestream on Facebook - would it be a cool idea to do livestreams on CZcams? Then you tune in and ask questions if they like.
Best,
Filip

So smooth, sounded like a clarinet at times.

Man this is great. I was practicing C on a G Marine Band, old one from NY, with 3 semitone draw as 4 note & 2 double draw as 1 note (can't quite get there 😂). Then the 6 note is 1 & 4 draw, 2 is 2 draw/6 blow, and 5 is 1 blow etc. I searched YT & found you right away (already subscribe). I'm playing along lower tonic notes while you go up & it sounds cool.

Beautiful Filip😌 I love this kind of your smooth jazzy blues💙 For me these short demonstrations with a little bit of explanation are the ideal stuff to weave into my playing😊 You are one of my favourite players!

Thanks for your kind words Heiko!

12th position? Holy Moley! So a G for C, eh? I’d wanna call it Reverse Cross, like a boxing move. I will give it a go. I can hear the possibilities.
But…
You’ve been playing that position for at least more than ten minutes, I can tell. Really sweet phrasing, and your command of the instrument is a beautiful thing. Thank you.
Maybe I’ll have that much facility someday.

Thanks for watching! Yes, if you play in C, use a G. Play in D, use an A. This position has a great timbre!

[@redchandler]

Awesome silky smooth playing as always!

Dude, you are very good in your instructions and you have a sweet sound. I watch a lot of your chromatic videos but this is the first on diatonic

Super lesson and playing! What brand of harp are you using here?

[@FilipJersMusic]

Thanks! This is a Suzuki Manji I customized myself. I got this particular G harmonica in 2011, still works great.
