PT Gazell has earned his position as a master of the diatonic harmonica. After years being the sought after side man and session player for some of Nashville's greatest, PT Gazell discovered half valving and his music literally soared to new heights.

Specifically, PT explains:

  • How to focus and refine your bending technique
  • Practicing your valved bends with tons of hands-on practice exercises (with downloadable PDF's)
  • Using the emotional shading that's made possible by the Gazell method
  • Playing in 5th position minor as an alternative to 3rd position minor
  • Using valved bends in a song - you'll learn a jazz blues tune called "Sugar" with head and solo
