Anybody blow harp through one of these?

I have the opportunity to buy one at a good price but I can't find much online info/ opinions from harmonica players.

At 22 watts, with a 12" speaker and 2 6V6's, a guitar playing friend has described it as the bigger brother of the Princeton Reverb RI, which I know gets quite positive reviews.

Any comments would be most appreciated!

[Aw crap, I just read the post a few below about a USB mic. Well, I'll leave this post anyways, just so that I can my first message posted here]

Basically, I just want to be able to play (acoustically) into a mic that is plugged into my computer. And/or maybe running it through a mixer box or -something-?

I am using Audacity to record, but I am using a POS mic that came with an old webcam. It's terrible at best.

Any ideas? continue reading...

Hello. I have been jamming for about a year and a half. My Amp is a Fender Blues Junior, my mic is a Shaker Madcat, and i recently purchased a Lone wolf Harp Break "Effect box...
i am having a very hard time with feedback. wherever I stand in relation to my amp, i get feedback. Can anyone help me with the potential proper settings for this combination? Thanks, T

With a few limited exceptions, up until now BlowsMeAway Productions has only sold products that I make. However my customers frequently ask about wireless systems. There are no wireless systems specifically for harp, and information about adapting existing systems is virtually nonexistent. Some systems work well. Others don't. I decided somebody needed to address this problem. continue reading...

Anyone have any opinions on this mic. I have an opportunity to buy one for $100.00. I looked up some info on it, and from the pic the seller emailed me, it looks like like it might be a dynamic element.

I have a green bullet circa 1998. Is this just going to sound like a Shure GB anyway?

I am going to go play it tomorrow and compare it, but I just wanted to see if you anyone had any thoughts. I posted this over in Fritz's forum also, but i wanted to see if anyone that does not cruise that forum had some thoughts.

I have a chance to purchase an old flot- a- tone 600 and I was wondering if anybody had any experience playing harp through one of these?

Does anyone have any suggestions on a leather case for harps? I have used the soft cases, with no luck. I need something that can take a bit of wear and tear and I will use it often. I remember cumberland cases awhile back, but I think they quit making them. Something along those lines would be ideal. Anyone have any suggestions? I have hard cases (metal/plastic), this would be something I can put my higher end harps in.

How many semitones does it take to go from a D to a C?

I hope you find this technical discussion informative, please feel free to ask any follow-up questions you may have. We covered a lot of ground in a short period of time, and easily could have spent the whole hour on any one of those topics!
