C Hohner Special 20

This riff can be played on any key harmonica but I am using a C harmonica in this one because most people have a C harmonica if they have any harmonica. If you need one, use my links for the best prices online:

I Don't Need No Doctor has a great little Blues riff to learn that only requires 3 different notes.

The difficulty arises in that 2 of the notes require bending when played in second position.

So, this is a great riff for working out the draw 2 double bend and the draw 3 single bend.

If you need help bending, check out Bent Harmonica in the Harmonica Essentials course.

So many Rock and Blues riffs only use a couple of notes and this is a perfect example of a melody line that consists of only 3 notes.

You can find a downloadable version of the harmonica tabs under the Help File link above.

C Hohner Special 20
