I've got a custom amp that was built based on the Fender Princeton circuit and swapped out the 12ax7's in v1 and v2 for a 12ay7 in v1 and a 5751 in v2 in order to reduce the gain that was causing a ton of feedback at volume setting just about 3. That seemed to work because I could get the volume setting to about 6 without any feedback.  Using a bullet mic with a shure element (similar to the Huemann elements) but when I took the amp to a jam I was still getting some feedback at moderately decent setting of 4 with control knob on the mic at about 1/4. continue reading...

My Grandfather gave me a Hohner Chromonica back in the 80's. I've had it 30 years now, but is there a way to tell when it was made? I'm just curious about when he might have gotten it.

Hey guys, could you recommend me some nice quality harmonica cases that I can buy online and worldwide?

Thanks :)

Hello all,I just bought a seydel 1847 but I'm having trouble adjusting the gap (making it smaller). Before I've allways played crossovers but I wanted to compare them...On my crossovers I've done all the work myself reed shaping, gapping, embossing and fitting a custom comb on them. This makes them play even better than they do out of the box. (believe it makes a world of difference). continue reading...

Anyone have any experience with the customized Harmonicas from Sugar Cains Custom Harps?

Thoughts, Experiences, Opinions??

Hi All

I play Hohner Marine band Deluxe/Crossovers in the main, but am interested in having a go with a Suzuji Fire Breath/Pure Harp after seeing Brendan Power on a YouTube demonstrTing them.

Hi All

just in 'case' (pardon the pun) anyone else is interested in one. 

I've just purchased a beautiful leather 4 harp case from Pinegrove Leather in Hebden Bridge West Yorkshire. 

Howard Levy has one so I though 'if it's good enough for him' ;-)

Here is the website address if anyone wants to have a look

Ps I have no financial interest in this shop. It just seems to make nice products.
