Good call, I couldn't hear the notes on it since almost all of the reeds are broken. Figures since this was dug out of a box marked WWI memoribilia.

Yeah, that's the one. I can't say enough about it.

I remember it to be similar to Laminated Cat but in open G. Try fooling around with that, I'll try to figure it out sometime this week.

Anybody out here play one of these? I inherited one from my Great-Grandfather who picked it up at the Hohner plant in Germany way back in 1900. So the story goes. The top comb is in C but, when I push the tab, it closes off the top and opens the bottom, which is in C#. I'm not really a student of theory, I just play it by ear but I'm having trouble getting this, is there a real advantage here?

A Honher Blues Harp. Pretty cheap and good sound, I wouldn't even call it a beginner harp. (Although, I've never bought a high end harmonica). Or the Big River Harp has a good sound too but it's plastic comb makes it tough to bend notes, the wood is sweet.

Do the humidity readers on your Dampit work? Mine sucks, they're all white. I hope that doesn't mean dangerously dry.

I have a pretty nice Martin, I can't tell you what model it is though, the thing wore off. Before you get set on a Martin, I would look at a Garrison. They're a relatively small company up in Canada (awesome wood) and are typically cheaper than Martins. Also, if you do any alternate tunings, these Garrisons hold up awesome and don't feel like they're going to break. I have a G-20 for $600 and the sound is rival to that Martin I own.

On guitar or on harp? There is a nice tab of the guitar part around here somewhere and I figured out how to play it on harp but, I have not the faintest idea how I would tab it or anything. Try playing along to a recording of it. Besides, playing songs exactly how they sound on the album is lame, add some soul!

Right, I just realized that, sorry.

Hopefully someone else likes this song as much as I do, really easy and fun to play. As for the lyrics, I'm really just making them up but they fit to the song. Intro (with whistling) E A D x2 E A D He was surfaced on the sidewalk on my block, the other day. Well, it's a fact check, sorry Charlie, he's back from the rain. F#m G E So son you better turn it around, Christ is on his way across town, G

Set!

There's a good photo of his setup in the Wilco Book I think. I'll try to scan a photo of it soon.

I know Pat used to play a Reeves, could it be the same one?

Bump! I think the F# may be an A though.

Here it is (Hope it's not too messy to read) Standard Tuning, Capo on 2 Intro: e---------------------------------- b------2-----2----2-----2-------- g-------2-----2-----2----2------- d---------------------------------- a---0-----------0-----------0----- Repeat x4 E---------0------------0---------- e-----------------------------2----- b-------------2---------------3----- g---------------2-------------2----- d--2h4--0----------2--2h4--0----- a--0-------0------------------------ E----------------0------------------ e---2----2----------0-------------------0- b---3--3------------2------------

Sorry, I'll try to get this up tonight.

That's sweet!

Figured this out awhile ago for someone but have forgotten to post it. Anybody still want/need it?

That's the one! Much thanks.

Does anyone have that neat little thing Jeff does during the song worked out? Anybody know what I'm talking about? The melody part. If anyone could post this, it would be greatly appreciated.

It's G Slack tuning. Also the same as Acuff Rose. DGDGBD Tune both E strings down to D and tune the A down to a G, pretty easy and great if you play slide.

Not always, but sometimes the same chord shapes are used. The nice thing about open tunings is you don't really have to know many chord shapes, just barring a fret is a new chord in theory.

Yeah, this is the Tweedy solo version.
