I just purchased the Hohner Harp Blaster HB52 and the only amp I have at the moment is my old guitar amp the Peavey Pacer 45 watt.   I was wondering what would be the best settings for this combo.  On your review of the Harp Blaster PDF you don't show any sample settings.

This particular amp settings include the volume, overdrive, bass, middle, treble, and reverb. 

 

Thank you

Terry

Hello Terry. Turn the mic all

Hello Terry. Turn the mic all the way up. Try Bass at 8, Middle at 4, and Treble at 2 as a starting point. Mix the volume and overdrive to taste (the overdrive will probably be very low... too much distortion causes feedback).
