RE: [Harp-L] Setup for overblow

easily, it means the setup is ok.
If you are in this configuration and your bend note is not working properly,
I would effectively say that maybe your position has to be readjusted. But
it sounds strange to me, I don?t remember I've changed my bending position
when I began overblowing.
In the contrary, if the draw doesn't work perfectly, it means you have to
readjust the gaps.

Objet : [Harp-L] Setup for overblow

I have recently begun to learn to overblow hole 6.  I have the gaps  set so 
that the overblow comes readily (eureka!) but have found that the draw  
bend is much much more difficult if not impossible.  I am wondering what
the 
solution is.  Do I readjust the gaps to get the draw bend and work on  my 
overblow technique or do I leave the gaps alone and relearn how to  bend?
