Canadian postal workers have elected to go on strike, effective November 15th. During this disruption we will be using alternate methods for shipping in Canada but will still be using Canada Post rates at checkout. Just opt for 'Regular' shipping to get your rate for domestic shipping - note that rates have been slightly adjusted to reflect the increased costs. If you currently have a PO box as your shipping address, we will need a street address for courier deliveries. Unfortunately, international orders will be delayed until the postal strike is resolved. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

Seydel Blues Session Steel Harmonica – Natural Minor

$107.99

The SESSION STEEL – Sounds strongerlives longer !

Natural Minor: this scale uses the same notes as the corresponding major scale, e.g. the A natural minor scale (ABCDEFGA) uses the same notes as the C major scale (CDEFGABC). All 3rds are minor thirds in this tuning so both chords (blow and draw) are minor chords. The minor mode sounds “sad” and all melodies played on this harmonica will automatically sound in minor. This tuning allows you to play minor tunes intuitively in first and in 2nd position. Attention: Seydel labels the Natural Minor according to 2 draw (2nd position) – if you want the harmonica to play in A minor (in 2nd position), order key of A.

Tip: You can try to play in the corresponding major key as well which starts in 3 draw (also called 11th position) – this position is a challenge to play on a Richter, but works perfect on the Natural Minor tuning variant!
