I'm trying to learn it and I can pretty much do it using this video, but if this is an actual song it'd be nice to find some tab , to figure out a couple parts easier.

Thanks!

No clue... but I do happen to have the same guitar : ) and I play it fingerstyle.

Cool….how do you like it? Ive been looking at getting an inexpensive vintage guitar and I’m torn between a Patrician, an h165, h162 or a Gibson b-15. I only wonder about the playability of some of the Harmony necks. They look a little raw/chunky.

The first part sounds like 'What A Friend We Have In Jesus'.

Wow, great playing!

What was the question?!

Three of the four guitars you name above will generally have fairly thick necks. I'm fine with them, but many players are not. I'm not familiar with the B-15.

I play a modified Harmony H165 much of the time. One of the modifications is some re-shaping of the neck to suit my preference. These old Harmonys are inexpensive and made of very good materials, but the reahab and setup process is fairly long and tedious. This thread might interest you in general:

My archtop has a distinct voice - much shorter sustain and much more in-your-face volume and presence than the flat-tops. It is a clean sounding rhythm backing guitar which can cut through with picked leads when I want it to.

My general preferences are for the flat-tops though (H162 and H165). They are versatile. Get them set up right, take them anywhere, and have a good time.

As an aside - as an open-mic singer and general campfire song leader, the H165 tone (all mahogany) has in the past matched my (baritone) voice better than most spruce-top guitars.

The second part sounds like a bluegrass version of 'Mary Did You Know'.
