"Tab for "You're Gonna Miss Me" by the 13th Floor Elevators"
 
Does anyone know what type of harp and position is used for the harp solo at the end of "You're Gonna Miss Me" by the 13th Floor Elevators?

I've included a sound file below (but it doesn't include the part of the song with the harp solo, unfortunately).

Many thanks,
Bob

Bob,

The song is in the key of "Em" or what I would more accurately describe as "E" Rock (where a minor pentatonic scale like a blues scale works great).

I'd guess that the harmonica played on this would be an "A" diatonic in 2nd Position. It would sound good though to play a key of "D" diatonic in 3rd Position. As you said, there is no harmonica on this exerpt, so that's the best I can come up with.

Play on,
Dave Gage
