Tuning - Major Diatonic, Part 16 (1st Position)

The major diatonic harmonica's tuning for 1st Position works well for both chords and single notes. Accessing the complete C Major Scale is challenging due to each octave being performed differently. Blues in 1st Position is very effective on the lower and upper octave, but the middle octave is almost unplayable. One's bending skills also need to be strong to access the bluesy notes in this position.

Next, we'll look at the harmonica from the 2nd Position perspective.
