Any refinements that you feel necessary will work themselves out over time as you continue to play this tune over and over ... obviously you have a process in place and the ability to percieve detail that works successfully despite only playing for a year ...
Some questions that may be instructive for all:
What degree of "musicality" is in you and your family naturally? for instance, do you play other instruments, have you had other musical training, have you always been interested in music, and what about others in your family/family tree? Etc.
Secondly, what IS your process to date? How much do you play per day/week? How did you approach learning Juke? How long did it take to get to this stage? What's your playing/practise routine? How often do you record your practise? What tips might you pass on to others? How about your harps; self customized? ETC.
Thanks in advance, JH
EDIT: Just want to clarify that I'm NOT doubting that you started playing a year ago ... rather wondering what you might pass on to the rest that may help with learning like you have and trying to get some context in terms of your previous musical experience and musical "potential" ... for instance one well known harp youtuber considered herself a beginner harmonicist yet had extensive musical education/training on another wind instrument into her early 20s ....

In my childhood I have 2 years learning to play the accordion. In 14-16 years, tried to play the guitar. I try to practice every day. Approximately 1.5 hours daily. Part of the time I use for exercise, part of the fact to study the works that I want to play. Juke, I studied about 4 weeks. I try to play by ear. In the harmonics I correct only Gaps. And tips ... Play more and more and then the result will be! I think so. :-)
P.S. I'm sorry for my English. I'm from Russia I write with translator Google. )))
P.S.2 For those who doubt, can put an entry made May 24, 2009. :-)
Greg Heumann I played a recording Rod's,In the recording with the equalizer has been removed harmonica. But soon my friend will backing track for this thing.
Diggsblues Yes, I want to play in a band, but in my small town is not so easy. I hope this is still more likely to happen.
