Michael are you playing stock harps or did you need to set it up for playing the overdraws? You appear to do it so effortlessly. What's the trick?

This particular harp I embossed all the reeds and gapped the blow and draw reeds on all the holes I wanted to overblow closer to the reed plate. Mostly I do not emboss. I also spent a lot of hours trying to get them to sound nice. In my opinion, fluidity on the high note blow bends, being able to jam in a Jimmy Reed style is a sure sign that your embouchure is ready for overblows. If you cannot jam in that style, work on them first.
