Gear

David: I want to let you and your students know that my website is back up and running after a hiatus to catch up. I'm taking orders on all Custom Seydel Stainless Steel Reed Diatonic Harmonicas. And, of special note, I'm customizing Hohner Crossovers, Marine Band Deluxe, and Thunderbirds too. Pricing is available on the website. Please feel free to call me at 408/531.5755 (San Jose, California) or visit the new site at www.customseydels.com and fill out the contact form. Wishing everyone a stellar Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope all your harmonica wishes come true.

Sincerely,

Hey guys, is it easy to find a Crossover A harp, and is it easier to bend than a Special 20? I am getting better with bending buy I am still a beginner.

5. Mic cable with screw-on connector

6. Heumann in-line, screw-on volume control

I want to offer them here before putting them up for auction elsewhere.

E-mail me ( GreggCarter at mac dot com ) for details, prices, etc.

Best,

Like allot of other players I had an idea of how my perfect harp would be configured and play and I would like to Thank Jon harl for making this a reality. I knew exactly what I wanted in a blues harp, Jon told me about all the options Seydel offers and explained to me the process he goes through. What I have been handed is a harmonica that is so much more than what I expected continue reading...

So i go to a studio with my band last week and it´s a new studio for us with good gears, etc. So When i plug my Blues Blaster Mic on a tube amp my mic doesn´t work so i change the mic to a dynamic shure and worked.So When i come home i tested my Blues Blaster at a Transistored Amp and worked normally

I am thinking about buying an Egnator Amp Head like the one that Gary Smith features on the site but amsearching for the right speaker cabinet to compliment the amp. Should the speaker box be enclosed or open-backed? Any suggestions? Thanks

I am so excited about my new setup for playing at home. I cannot afford a great big house with space between me and the neighbors or a separate studio to practice in, so it's me at home in my apartment, surrounded on three sides by neighbors. Side walls are pretty thick, but ceiling, even with the Audimute sound absorption sheets on walls and ceiling, is not tight enough to withstand me serenading my good-natured upstairs neighbors with Telphone Blues for the 1 millionth time on amp. continue reading...

As harp players what has your experience been with this amp???? Does it still perform well at lower volumes?

Hi All, I seem to be looking for another amp altho I'm not totally sure why as i own a 1960 Fender Vibrolux which is pretty sweet. As I's certain everyone is aware as u research amplifiers everyone claims that theirs is the very best!!! I've read some good things about the Mission Chicago and also about the HarpKing. My band plays a lot of of West Coast/Piazza stuff so of course I have an interest in the Harpking. Experiences and inputs????

What's the difference besides the bamboo comb?
