Playing harp with a Guitarist in Dm
What harmonica should be used to play with a guitarist playing in D Minor?
Hello team,
I was thinking exactly the same thing and wanted to apply this concept to a song by the BluesBreakers called "Congo Square". Its a Sonny Landreth song, but Im working on the John Mayalls version on "A Sense of Place".
Im wondering if youve heard Mayalls version, and Im wondering if he is using another technique or perhaps a chromatic harp as I cant seem to match the pitches he's playing on this. Id be curious as to what you think.

Hello Sez. Your ear is directing you in the right place... I'm also hearing C Chromatic in 3rd Position.
Hello Landonshane. We commonly use a G Harmonica in 2nd Position or C Harmonica in 3rd Position.
