Great video, I am interested

[@rob94551]

Tomlin, a non-endorsed review is always appreciated. I liked the demo, so we can hear the output but also showing us your pedals and amp allows us to better understand the amplified sound. I would appreciate more of the reviews in the future.

[@monomer1397]

Not only was the review helpful but I got a bunch of live harmonica tips. Thank you, bro.

@Eric Luis Instablaster :)

[@ericluis2290]

@Grey Camden thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

[@rgwilkins7724]

I would like to see a full explanation of your signal path. What equipment do you use and what does each component do. Thank you.

[@AeveryFreeman]

Always glad to get advice from an honest broker - rare find these days! BTW, congrats on the new baby.

[@deansoto8377]

[@roblipton9121]

thanks for this, my d9 just failed during a gig, had to switch to a voice mic, I'm old school, your review was spot on!

[@Emil-Antonowsky]

Nice to see the chain. Like the gear review thing definitely would watch some more. Looks like a tidy wee mic. Like it. Good luck everyone. X

[@tonycannon3906]

Great review Tomlin. I bought one of these a few months ago and they are just killer . So easy to cup, built like a tank, volume knob is so smooth and rock solid. Brilliant bit of kit. Nicely done 👊

[@serek481]

A great gear showcase. I think videos demonstrating musical gear are a wonderful idea. Love from Poland :D

[@piotrkowalczyk3470]

💪🏼🇵🇱

[@alkli]

yes please! more demo stuff, very very useful! and thanks for a chance to win this!

[@thomaszoe4662]

May the Blues Be With You

[@kellermax]

Gear reviews are nice every now and then. But I'd also be interested in the rest of your setup - what you use and why and what settings...

[@Will-Max]

Here's one of them. But I've seen him also using a Hall of Fame reverb and a delay pedal, along with an M amp emulator. Can't find that one right now kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWS3g4SMh7dqi5o

[@leandrounoniusdelima6458]

Fantastic!! Please do more reviews like that!!

[@davidjames2049]

I appreciate your gear reviews and your tutorials. Thanks!!

[@elsiecow7023]

Thanks Tomlin for the demo. I'm not ready for a mic just yet. But when I'm ready, I'll give this one a look. I don't even understand what all those other things are. Good luck. Ronda

[@MoxRacing]

Thanks for a great harmonica-channel. I have one BIG wish about testing harmonicas, I will please ask you if you will test my newfound harmonica-babies. I have only heard one of all you great players mentioning my little gems, it was Liam Ward. The harmonicas are chinese Kongshen Mars M1. I needed a B-harp for half a year ago, and I decided to order a M1, just to try them out. And I was overwhelming surprised. The tone is loud, crispy and very clean. The mouthpiece is with round holes, and for the first time in my life, I can now draw hole 2 a whole step down on a C-harp. I was so happy with my new harp, that I ordered 8 more on black friday, half price of Marine Bands. My references are Marine Band, bought for 40 years ago, and I blowed it to pieces in 2 weeks. Not Hohners fault but mine, I played it like crazy, and noone had learned me how to play harmonica. For many years I played Lee Oscar, they are very solid and loud harmonicas. Later I bought a set of Suzuki Bluesmaster, they are also nice and loud harmonicas. I've also played a Seydel Blues Session, but my new Kongshen Mars M1 overshines everything I've played earlier. Have a nice weekend. Cheers Mogens

[@donaldraines4992]

I love the sound you can achieve. Wow. The warm gargle sound. having small hands I think it would be a better fit for small hands.

[@chuckperson1721]

Thanks Tomlin for sharing your good feeling! Greetings from Spain.

[@roytube10]

great review sir. been a while since I needed your advice but you always come thru!!

[@golfod1190]

Thanks for the good review! I was hoping you would talk about the volume control knob and what cables you would recommend. Cheers!!!

[@johnkidd2714]

Would definitely like more reviews like this.

[@allanfuss7488]

Thanks for the review. Would like to hear a comparison of the green bullet to this mic thru the same audio chain.

[@heinzfroewis]

A great demonstration - you play wonderful notes here

[@crunchieRL]

Definitely more gear reviews Tomlin! Loving the lockdown haircut btw.

[@kidcardona1402]

I'm sure you have already given the harp away, but I just wanted to say a good job on the website. Looking forward to seeing more great stuff from you.

[@marybethhempel9101]

Wow Tomlin! This is one of the best reviews on the Harp Blaster mic. I love that it isn't sponsored and that you bought two and are giving away one. I love all the fun pop-up pictures! You gave some great demonstrations of holding it, playing it, singing with it , and using your pedals with it. Thank you for such a thorough review. I have been needing a small mic, as my hands are just too small for the bullet, and I have been wondering if I should get one of these Harp Blaster's or a bulletini? Thank you Tomlin! --Late entry: I had to come back and add that I am looking at the Bulletini review that Blows me away Productions just did on Harpin by the Sea last month, and I just realized that it is the same size as the Bullet mic, except weighs much less and sounds better. So that confirms it all for me that I am definitely wanting a Harp Blaster mic now, because it is smaller for my hands and easier to cup. I am so glad you did this Tomlin... Now my mind is made up, so I choose the Harp Blaster mic! That's on my list for this year now, and now I have to figure out what amp to get! LOL!! Thank you again Tomlin!! :-)

[@talmag]

Thanks Tomlin, very useful. Please keep doing such reviews

[@lise-annedore8935]

Yes, please more demo videos.

[@christopherjosack9060]

Very well done Tomlin! Yes I would appreciate more of these concise and interesting reviews.

[@spfrancis1]

Thanks for the review - I'll keep this on file for when I hit that point.

[@nealbruce5914]

Fabulous review Tom!!!!! Lost my love for the green bullet!

[@dougmcgee6075]

Great demo! Please do more!

[@davidj3890]

Yes, I do enjoy the gear reviews. Thanks

[@greggibson4000]

great video Tomlin. Awesome unit. love your take on the Blues.

[@lynnwintercorn8585]

Love these demo videos!! Keep 'em coming :-)

[@greenmarker5152]

Yes, more reviews please Tomlin. I find your reviews most helpful, in fact having seen your review of Sydel / Hohner / Suzuki, I have today ordered a Sydel Silver 1847 to replace my Lee Oscar.

[@andreatognasca676]

Very Good review, thanks Hohner and thanks Tomlin!

[@matthewscheidt7754]

YES I ENJOY YOUR REVIEWS! Many THANX!

[@AMaupin2]

Tomlin--thank you for this review! And, yes, please do more gear reviews!

[@sagehopkins1]

As always, this is another great review from you Tomlin! I don't feel the need to search further reviews to get an understanding of the quality of this 🎤 mic! Keep up the reviews, I find them to be fun and informative!

Heck yes!! More!!

[@gvaikousis]

Well said Tomlin. Do more videos about equipment. They are interesting.

[@jerryjonsson8008]

Yes, please! More reviews!

[@dennissmith4825]

I really like the size. I have a bulletini and it is too small for my hands. The Harp Blaster is a bit larger and and is a better fit for me. By the way I watched your video on Billy Boy Arnold's Wish You Would and I really appreciated the lesson. I didn't realize all those notes in the beginning were bends on the 2 draw. Thanks and keep up the good work helping all of us less talented folks to continue to improve our harp skills.

[@hartmutmuller9336]

Very very great, please do more of such informative videos.

[@mitalisen8139]

Tomlin, Namaste 🙏 I am willing to learn harmonica. I never played. Will buy one. Then follow your lessons. I choose you as my teacher 🙏 Best wishes.

[@WoozleEffect]

It's certainly MY favourite new microphone! It's pretty darn good!

[@WoozleEffect]

I dropped mine on the very thinly-carpeted concrete floor of my basement just yesterday, and sure enough, it still works great! It shrugged that fall off like a seasoned MMA fighter takes a kick to the shins!

[@marianvink2915]

Happy Harping, sounds great....

[@kstroh4191]

Yes! Love the demos!

[@banditinoz]

Another great review man and very helpful for someone like me with only one hand. I have a Green Bullet and have a real hard time holding it and a harp together in my one hand. Looks like a very cool unit.

[@jimpowell5316]

Great review . I love the tte and the fact it is smaller as I have small hands

[@deenaelieff396]

The mic does sound good! Thank you for the review and the chance to win one. :)

[@elliotphilipson5375]

Very nice review of the microphone. Consider a mother one to discuss the Fender amp? Keep up the great work- Doc

[@dietmarstrack136]

great review from you -thank you

[@rtnulb]

I like these demos, make some more please.

[@martinlomas6706]

Great review, keep them coming. Enjoying your beginners lessons.

[@Joltt01]

Thanks Tomlin, great vid, I always like to hear about near gear available it if they perform well, keep up the good work.

[@timmooney2133]

Great review and great playing. Thanks

[@johnsomerville7619]

Very informative, mic sounds good. As a wannabe blues harp player it would add another dimension to my playing. As you purchased the mic yourself I guess you can give an honest assessment. Sometime I the near future when I progress I would certainly be looking at getting a mix but to win one would be a bonus.

[@palmmic]

Thank you for all the tips and tricks you share. it helps me tremendously. Who knows, I may need a microphone in the future as well. Regards Michael

[@robb8773]

How does this compare in size to the Hohner Blues Blaster (JT30) or what is the overall diameter of the grill end?

[@SomeGuy-iw2kh]

Is it bad to use an XLR to jack cable on this to get it into my amp and pedals?

[@uelisgold]

I would like to see some different pedal board suggestions and the reasoning for the signal chain, your tone is wicked!!

[@Chris-sd8mk]

Hi tom don’t you use the howlin wolf anymore.

[@harmonicamanrandy]

Tomlin that's way cool. I play on a bulletini right now. This new thing looks like the next generation with more tech.

[@rickmelvin4675]

I like this kind of gear review video. I would like to see an amp review next.

[@jamesgoss-cycling3433]

Good video! Just starting out on harmonica learning with your fine self. At some point amplified harmonica is something I'd like to get in to as I love that sound 😁. Vids like this will really help me decide what to get when I take that plunge.

[@larrymilco4405]

How does harp blaster compare to the bulletini?

[@eyecandyfuel]

Thx Nice review the mic sounds nice the size of it is even better

[@alrago1963]

Love the gear reviews! Great sounding mic!

[@edwarddipaola]

Hi like that it fits in your hand has a good tone

[@edwarddipaola]

Does it have a long cord?

[@ralphwaltrts5994]

I enjoy reading and watching your videos. My question is why are Blues Licks mostly drawers instead of blows. am I just misunderstanding what I hear or see? Are there any Blues Licks that are mostly blows, rather than drawers? I guess you can tell what I'm actually saying is I have a hard time with draw notes on the harmonica

[@mikebottiaux5850]

Nice review, I just ordered one. 👍

[@chrishenricks6405]

Great mic 🎤 review! Please, do more of these. 😀

[@biliharp9839]

Hi. How to connect this mic to the amp ? Do I need any adapter like XLR to 1/4 Jack ? Tes ? What exactly ? Regards

[@harmonica212]

Hi, Tomlin, I was wondering I got that Microphone for Christmas and I plugged it into my Livewire cable and no sound came out so I thought the Prim guy may have tossed my package so I sent it back and they sent me a new Microphone which still won't work... I took it to Guitar Center to see what is wrong and they didn't have any cables so I tested it on one of their cables hooked up to one of the microphones on display and so the second Microphone I got back has some static so I have to send it back again Rrrrr can you tell me what cable you are using in the video for the Harp Blaster HB 52 because my cord won't work... I'm currently using a Hohner Blues Blaster and it works fine... Do I need a different cable??? any help will be great Thank You! for sharing this video.

[@michaelwillis499]

What key was your mouthorgan

[@danielmaier762]

Well done. Thanks for sharing your knowlege. And yes, please share more of this kind of videos. 👏👌😊

[@steveb8200]

That tone!!!! 3> 3> 3>

[@aaronsnaith9816]

these demo videos are interesting and helpful

[@wayneyeargain9064]

Yes good idea for equipment review !

[@katana9661]

Great video and inspiring presentation

[@dbwuji]

Can you do a how-to/review type video where you show how to play amplified and what equipment is needed/recommended? I've only ever played without amplification and I don't know how to set it up!

[@jamesoblaney4886]

Tom, What are your recommendations these days on an end. I really don’t give much just play in my basement sometimes in the backyard and periodically with friends in their backyards but I would like something convenient to haul round with the sound of that fender baseman. Pie in the sky or possible?

[@ujjalkohli7930]

Thank you! I have one and love it.

[@amoricanseth8320]

Is there a clip for this mic included in the box? or is there one available at all from Hohner? This is an expensive headache for the Shure Green Bullet

[@colesanders5251]

Nice video :) my moms cousin plays the harmonica too so it exactly sounds like his harmonica.

[@MrParusso61]

Thanks, Tomlin, I'm getting to the point where I'm interested in gear, so your reviews like this are most welcome! And thanks for letting us know you spent your own money -- did you spend it because you researched it and concluded you wanted to have it? Or was it more you wanted to try it and see if you liked it?

[@r5yamaha]

A demo on how to get reverb

[@JFredick]

Awesome tone!

[@jimholloway7728]

Nicely done Mate.

[@roym9097]

Worth wile review, thanks. Good to see another smaller production harp mic than the (go to) 520 DX.

[@jeffsimslmt]

Nicely produced video. Informative, except I’d like to know more about cables connecting the mic to my Fender 57 custom, or to my PA.

[@ericjones1079]

Great review. Looks and sounds a great piece of kit.

[@fullsunforever8867]

Can I record my harmonica with my PC? Can I connect this microphone to my camcorder?

[@sagnikpaul1811]

I live in India and I can't buy proper gears in here. Even normal Hohner harps cost way too much in here. I have been using easttop t008k but I can't do overblows on it. I don't know what to do.

[@peizhongwang401]

Thank you for your recommendation. I just brought a stick microphone. What kind of amplifier would you recommend? I hope the two pieces would match. Here is my order for the mic: Shure SM57 Dynamic Instrument Mic - Professional Quality and Versatility for Live Performances and Recording - Contoured Frequency Response, Durable, Ideal for Drums, Percussion, Amplifiers (SM57-LC)

[@deascycles1655]

Thanks. Yes, you should continue to do these kinds of videos because if you don't I may never hear about them. :)
