Most of the beginning harmonica instruction books are incremental...   that is,

They start you out with easy songs and build in difficulty level as you go.
 


The easy songs usually don't sound
very exciting and you will be tempted
to skip them and move on to better
sounding stuff.


DON'T SKIP OVER THE EASY SONGS.

Play each song a couple of times.
Record yourself. If you sound OK then move right on to the next song...   Otherwise

spend an hour on the piece and learn what
the author intended you to learn.

Skipping the easy songs early in
your harmonica learning cycle only
means you'll struggle longer with
harder (better sounding) songs, and perhaps get so frustrated you quit.
The flip side of this advice is...don't spend forever on each easy song.
These are training songs not performance pieces.
Each one teaches you something you need to know,
but polishing each song to performance level probably isn't necessary...
Pick the songs you like and spend extra time on those.

520DX rewired solution for low impedance

Question

Please can you send me the rewired plan or a description for the 520DX, to turn it from high to low impedance?

520DX Low-Impedance Modification

The following diagrams show how to modify the 520DX for low impedance (z), balanced or unbalanced operation. By changing the microphone to low impedance, the cord of the 520DX can be extended without losing high frequencies. By wiring an XLR to the balanced low impedance modification (audio + to pin 2, audio - to pin 3, ground to pin 1), the microphone can be plugged into a standard low impedance input mixer. The microphone should be left as high impedance if it is being connected to a guitar amplifier.
