Dudes, does anyone know what harp and position Charlie is playing on I'm In I'm Out I'm Gone, off the recent album Get Up with Ben Harper. Tune seems to be in Db; odd. Don't know what position he's playing and therefore don't want to invest $60 in the wrong harp.

As always, thanks.

3rd on a B harp would be my guess.

Oops! That'd seem to clinch it for 2nd.

And it seems to lay better in 2nd, too.

Sorry-I need to amend my post-the band would be in Db for Charlie to play a Low F#,second position,or Ab and Charlie would be in third with his Low F# harp-

After 5:20 and after 5:30 it shows a harp in F. Now whether or not he is using that harp is a different story.

The harp in the opening of the vid ,the Low F#,is the harp used in the vid.
The others at 5:20 and 5:30 were harps that were probably strategically placed by the film crew-

The Itunes version comes with a booklet and 25 minute video. I really love this album.
