If you can't hear the difference between the note (pitch) from an online tuner and the note played on the ukulele, you might need to just buy a tuner. Something like this

This post originally had a few different solutions in it, but honestly I think the quickest and most effective one would be to just drop the ~$10 for a new tuner that can all notes, not just standard guitar tuning. Tuners are an essential tool, and there's nothing wrong with making sure you have what you need in your essentials kit.

2.5 Billion was a large guess. Essentially I am thinking of a piano tuner as something like this Basically, I just thought about how long piano tuners may have existed, even non electronic tuners, then figured even if they weren't working and we sitting in a landfill they were still in existence etc.. etc... 2.5 billion ever created throughout the history of time just seemed like a fun answer.

I highly recommend 100 Authentic Blue's Licks.

However, the book assumes you know how to do a lot of advanced moves: tongue block chords and solid bending technique. I suggest you pick it up as soon as you can do F (2''), F# (2'), Bb (3'), A (3''), and Db (4').

Once you get those bends down, you'll be able to play ~30% of the licks in the book. Then you get Tongue Block chords to get another 20% or so. You can play the tongue-block versions without tongue blocking (just play the highest note), it just doesn't sound as cool / good... but it definitely simplifies things.

The last half of the book are technique specific: there's a chunk on Glissandos, Flutter Chords (related to Tongue Blocks), a few 1/4th step bends, a few Overblows and so forth. The book goes to advanced places, with tons of advanced techniques getting explored.

Sheet music, Tabs, AND a CD (if you're the type to learn by listening) are all provided as well. Its a great resource.

More realistically, I think that taking a break and going for something easier often helps encourage me. I suggest playing easier songs, don't push yourself if you feel discouraged. That only leads to frustration.

Learning the Harmonica is going to be a years long commitment. There's no need to rush... just play and improve at a pace that feels comfortable.

Failing to differentiate between Bb (3') and A (3'') (half-step vs whole-step bends) over and over again is rough. Practice playing something easier like "Skip to my Lou" to build confidence and then return to bending practice.

------------

When I was learning to bend accurately (erm... I still am perfecting this technique actually...), I bought a Tuner that has note output and also checks for accuracy.

If you have access to a tuned Piano, you can just play the note and try to learn by ear what a bend should sound like.

This looks like a pretty good tuner for a good price. But yeah, something like this is what I recommend. And remember to make sure it's set to 440hz!

Use this if you don't already have one

With my CA-20, it listens to the tone, picks it's closest note, and tells you how far away you are from it. It's extremely sensitive and it always provides a good tune.

Side note, you can de-tune at will too by setting the A-440 reference point to a different frequency, which will change your overall tuning. I notice some artists record slightly downtuned.
