Elwood's harp intro to Flip, Flop and Fly on Briefcase Full of Blues confuses me. This is one of my favorite harp pieces ever as it's the very first song I ever remember making me want to play the harp. Now that I am playing the harp I'm wondering what key he's using. Everyone says Eb but my Eb sounds way too high for that intro.
Is he playing a low pitch Eb?

It's a regular Eb harp. Check out this thread I posted in a while ago:

I've actually always played that on a Bb (but in first position for a change!), with pretty good luck....
