Anyone have any experience with this speaker.  It has been recommended for me to put into my blues jnr 

Hi all,

I have recently had my fender blues jnr modded for harp. I was wondering whether it is worth changing the standard fender speaker to a jensen p10r. 

What do you guys think about the Fender Champ Silverface?

Hello Harp Techs,

My second “harmonica” microphone, after the Astatic JT30-c that I bought from Quement Electronics in 1973 was (still is,‘cause I still have them both;o), a Shure PE54 with pistol grip (and switch). Essentially the same as the Shure 545, except my PE54 was set up for Hi-Z. Over the years I migrated to the Shure 57, then to Greg’s Ultra57. continue reading...

Has anyone tried the Farmer SideNote Harp Holder?  If so, what has been your experience with it?

I found an old post of Kinya's when I was digging through the forum the other day and decided I wanted to try it.  He said you could take a comb out of Hohner's children's harmonicas and put them in a special 20 because they fit.  So I ordered a purple one and he was totally right. It did fit, and it plays just like before.  But now I think also looks awesome in addition to playing awesome!

Here it is!

I predominantly play Suzuki Manjis but decided to splash out and have a harp customised. Neil Graham ( http://www.neilgraham.com.au/ ) was recommended to me. Neil is a Hohner affiliated customiser who lives on the south coast of NSW so if there are any Australians on the forum, I can recommend his work. The base harp is a Marine Band Deluxe. Needless to say I am very happy with the result. Great work and many thanks Neil.

Hey all. I figured out a way to make the hand-wah huge!  And bring hand-wah techniques back to closed back mics!

Before the SPAH conference I posted a video demonstrating some new harp sensor technology ideas, which I collectively called The Cyborg Harmonica, and I presented all of it again in a seminar there. The seminar and the tech I presented were pretty well received overall, but there was particular interest in the electronic hand-wah I am now calling the J-Wah. continue reading...

Hi there, I think of buying a Fireballmic. Now there are two models on the market, same price. The Fireball V has a volume control. Has anyone experience using them or can help me which to choose?
