Hey @daveyconder welcome to the forum my friend. That’s an A harmonica, and the intro he’s playing -5 5 -5 5 -5 5 -4 4. That should get ya started…

Thank you so much for this information. Truly awesome of you to provide this. I have been trying to play it by ear but although I felt like I was getting close I couldn’t quite get the exact sound and each time I tried to play it my rendition changed. I am going to learn this (refrain?). I would like to compensate you for your time in tabbing this. Should I buy a A harmonica or just continue with my C? At any rate, I would like to provide some kind of monetary support for your time and consideration… Please advise. Mostly…. Please accept my sincere appreciation for your input. Now I am going to go practice.

Yeah, you’re definitely gonna wanna pick up an A harmonica. A Special 20, or a Marine Band Deluxe would sound super sweet for this genre:
LMK when you get it.

The key of A is probably the most used after your C harp. It is completely worth the purchase if you are serious about playing.

Thank you for your thoughts. I am taking your advise and ordering the A harmonica… I am so grateful to find some direction in my pursuit of creating sound that somehow can be woven into what is known as music. How awesome to have a format to collect information and lessons in a shared pursuit. Music is powerful. I believe most people actually need to spend more time listening. Basically it is a meditative practice, which provides healing of the soul and recenters my self perceptions. I see a tremendous amount of suffering from my fellow humans and the cure, from my perspective, is music. Play on……

Good gotto Friday! What a sweet instrument. Helluva recommend friend. Just blowing and breathing through this Marine Band Deluxe A produces music 
. Nothing against the Easttop 008k but music, not notes, come out of this piece of musical equipment. Thanks yet again Luke and teammates. I now have the proper tool for learning Bluefoot by Logan Halstead. The entire album is simply a treat.
Here are a few of the reasons from a complete green harp: the A key is absolutely beautiful. Haunting and powerful in the same breath. Single notes seem easier to aquire. In fact, it seems to teach as you go so it is very intuitive. And lastly, it doesn’t pull out my whiskas 
.
Thank you Thank you Thank you !!!

Yes I have it keyed out. I will try to supply you with tabs. Luke’s advise for a Marine band deluxe in A key was spot on.
Let me know how this comes thru
