Re: Harp Amps

Check out www.clarkamplification.com. They do a harp amp.

I personally think you are better off getting a classic guitar amp - a 
tweed Bassman, Super, Bandmaster, Pro, Deluxe, etc. Clark and Victoria 
(and Retrosound in Oz) do great copies of those amps. If you're going 
to spend big bucks on a custom amp then you could probably afford an 
original BF or Brown amp, depending upon the cosmetic condition, etc, 
and they sound great for amp.

Look at it this way - Mark Hummel plugs SJ amps on his latest CD but 
you'll note that the amp he actually recorded with was a 1959 Bassman. 
The SJ's and other custom amps are cool (some of my friends swear by 
them), but original tweed Fenders have better attack and tone, IMO.

Cheers
Andrew
