The Thumb tune is directly from the Wes Montgomery recording and is also similar to a famous Count Basie riff. It is all accessible on a conventional Richter tuned diatonic with the exception of the 5 blow note that will require a valved blow bend. Provided Tab

PT Gazell

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

No other player combines his phrasing, melodic style, song choices and improvisational abilities the way he does - in the end, it is a style all his own. Using his own signature instrument, the Gazell Method diatonic manufactured by Seydel, PT proves that the harmonica is capable of far more than most of us believe.

Dig it!

In his courses, PT teaches half-valving straight from the source - so you can get started with the Gazell Method, master valved bends, and bring them into your own songs.
