Re: Spirit Harp Pro or RI Bassman?



Hi Dejon,

I haven't tried either of these amps, but I would not hesitate for a second
: I'd go for the Spirit. Not only is it designed for harp, but it's much
lighter (think of your back ;-) and can always be miced if you need more
volume. In my experience, if you want a good sound on a stage you'd need to
mic the Bassman as well anyway...

My two cents...

Happy New Year to you all !
