In a moment of foolishness, I purchased a "Silver Creek" "Diamondback" harp from the local "Guitar Center" store. Looks like this is their store brand. Who makes it for them, and any opinion regarding the quality of this harp?
I recently bought a custom built Bassman that is modified and sound really good but the cabinet has some design flaws. The bottom speaker are angled up toward the player. He explaned to me that he intentionally made it this way so you could hear yourself better on the band stand. My thinking is perhaps the cabinet was just built to small. The gentleman that slod it to me is a friend and a great guy. I think all I have to do is swap out the cabinet. Here is the link to were you can see the amp.
Question: does any one have a cabinet I could buy for this amp. Thanks. continue reading...

I need to improve my ability to TB individual holes accurately. Moving from a 4 draw to a 7 draw (for example) I still often miss the hole slightly or even find 6 instead of 7.
Harp Ninja seems like it might be a useful practice aid.
Have you guys used it in that way and what do you think is its value? How have you used it?
as I have very little experience with tube amps I wanted to ask wether it is better to set the volume control and/or gain to zero when switching a tube powered amp on or off?
From my technical understanding I would say it doesn't matter as the tubes have no power when switching on. So no amplification should take place that could damage the amp. However, I am not sure and just wanted to ask.
