Thanks for the explanation of what happens to the reeds on a 6 over blow. Now please, some lesson about setting up the harp to facilitate overblow.

I respect you with my soul and my heart.You are my harmonica teacher.You are teacher harmonica legend.🙏

Thanks so much Liam. Your explanation of what is actually happening in an overblow is the best I've ever heard. Once I understood that you have to keep pushing after you have the reed choked I was able to produce (within about 10 tries by adjusting my mouth cavity) the beginnings of an actual overblow, and I was even able to hold it for a second or two on occasion. I was astounded as I had never been able to do that before at all and I have been trying for a very long time. Pun intended, I was blown away. I am now confident that with practice I'll get the hang of it. Thanks again, bro!

Wondrous lesson

Very clear & easily understood explanation, thank you for your time & effort.

By far the most generous information about over-bends, I am an overblow player already and i can tell, cheers

You are teacher harmonica legend.🙏

This was so helpful!! With the cover plates off I was finally able to get the sound I was trying to get -- now I'm trying to apply that with the plates back on....

That was painless and a stellar approach to the overblow...Thanks

Your guidance is very simple and easy to understand, I like it very much,Thank you.

thanks to this tip I could execute an overblow on hole 6 using a cheap easttop harmonica. thanks for the lesson, you helped me a lot

Thanks!

WOW that was super helpful and original. Thanks Liam.😜

Exellent!!!🙂👍👌

As always, great video! It took a couple of tries, but I finally manage to do my first ob! Thanks!

Excellent. Thanks!

Couldn't get the 6 overblow still😞 on an A and Bflat. I could though get the 7 and 8 overdrawn on both A and Bflat.

Very well explained! Great video, it compliments the other approaches to this technique.Kudos!

Good

Wow, thank you for this video....it has really helped me understand over blows and overdraws!!

Thanks! Yesterday I saw your video (late at night), today morning I got my first 3 overblows (6, 5 and 4) hahaha. Even 6 tongue blocked which is my aim. Can I be more grateful to you? THANKS! And after achieving them for the first time I can agree overblow is a bad term. It's more like a blow bend that happens to bend the opposite reed in a weird way hahaha. But feels like a harder blow bend definitely.

Thank you very much. Well done-Well explained and interesting..thanks again..

Awesome video bro!!!! I coming trying that a long time and now I start do the overbends!!! Thank you so much about this video!!!😁😁😁😁

well explained, thank you

Very insightful

Hi Liam could you please try and get the tabs for the war movie A bridge to far please. Thank you for your amazing lessons. I'm a complete noob but already I can play about 25 tunes(single notes) all thanks to you. Top man keep up the good work

Totally get it now you explained this so well , great tip tks my friend 👍

Great teacher. 🚂💨🔥🎵

Hello Liam. The Floral Dance appeals to me but I'm finding it difficult to play! Perhaps as a beginner I'm over ambitious but would greatly appreciate a lesson if possible please - Thank You!

you're a totally cool cat with these awesome lessons!!

Excellent lesson and great advice mate

GREAT explanation! Thanks so much.

absolutetly splendid! Thanks a lot!

Please please, Sixto Rodriguez's Sugar Man, beatiful song. I just love it and I wonder how hard could it be. Thanks!

Great leason Liam !

Will you do a lesson on Deep down in Florida by Muddy Waters. My name is orlando

Liam,I can"t hit that 5th note of the intro to midnight cowboy, (-4 4 -3 -2 ) I can"t get that -3/ bend? Overblows are out of reach for me without taking off the cover.Please help!! I LOVE this song and movie. Thank you!!

Hi, thanks for the video. I have a question though, is it normal to get a F sharp instead of B flat tone when overblowing the sixth hole on a c harmonica?

Excuse me for bad English,Liam,But if i understood,for this trick about overbend needs to play harmonica without cover or I misunuderstandineg?Tanks and.Bravo

Now the question is, when I COVER and still just comes a wissing sound , how should I tweak my reed ?

Hi Liam just starting out I'd love to be able to play Dionne Warwick n Steve wonders that what friends are for, on a c harmonica if you could it would keep me motivated.. thanks colin

I can get it sometimes, but i find i'm not isolating the single hole very well when trying the overblow, like i can on normal notes, and am leaking into the others so the sound is sometimes corresponding to those other holes. Any tips?

How long should you practice on your harmonica

Pushing through? I run out of air and the note stops. I add more air and it plays again. It doesn’t change pitch. What do you mean, push through?

Hi Liam,Very helpful information on the 6 overblow. On my C Harp I was able to push trough that first stage (G Note and then stopping it), but then always end up with the wrong overblow note (Gb Note) instead of Bb where i should have landed. Any idea why?

video 'how to tune a harmonica' plz

Does it work on bad harmonicas?

Thanks again, Liam. But what do you mean by "push through" after you choke the reed? I'm good at choking the reed, but then what? Just keep blowing? Blow harder? Blow softer?

Great info thanks Liam. Which holes can you over blow on, just 6 or from 6 onwards?

The secret is out. Now schoolboys everywhere will be overblowing like mad. the cat is out of the bag. no really thanks for the explaination, there is simply no other place to get this secret info. I thank you for the tip.

Why can't someone just teach how to blow and what to do with your mouth?! I don't need an entire history lesson on overblows or how to do it with a screwdriver! Jesus

I think this is bull.... that's just bending the not

Good
