RE: [Harp-L] Chromatic harp tabs

[Marc Molino <mmolino54@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't seen anything like this, Gary and I spend a ridiculous amount of time online looking at harmonica-related stuff. I created some of this sort of thing for diatonic (which is what I began on), but have been considering doing it for chromatic.
 
I would think the easiest route would be to print out the scales of interest to you in musical notation form and just hand write the tab below it. If you don't know musical notation, there are a ton of places online that spell it out pretty quickly and you don't need to be that well versed to read scales.
 
Oh, what the heck, I'll just list them here... It'll help me practice, too!
(chromatic tab: + = blow, - = draw, < = press slide button in)
