Thank you so much for checking the song out! I start on a G harp and end on a C harp.

@mikefugazzi Very nice job, I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was good! One question: above, you say the solo starts in 3rd then switches to 2nd. Then on this post it says you start on a G harp and end on a C. Did you mean start on C, then go to G? What key is the song in?  Thanks, and once again, nice job!

@Faireweatherfriend The song is in Am, or at least that is how I approach it. So I started in 3rd position on a G harp and then went to 2nd position on a D harp. You're right, it is not a C harp. However, a C harp in 4th position would totally work. Full disclosure, this was in a pretty empty room, and I was just wanking away. I think the best way to tackle it is to use 3rd on a G harp and then move to 4th on a C or 5th on an F to hit higher notes.
