Thanks for the heads-up on that dirty sounding blues note. Been chasing this info for years. Something the 'experts, musos & pundits could not even advise me on. Decided to call it the VGT Dynamic setting for ease of recall. Power to your chords.

Sorry but this is a pet peeve of mine. On a tube amp (or good amp) the volume doesn’t control the volume level like your tv volume does, it’s more like a voice, your tube amp doesn’t want to scream quietly. The key to a good amp sounds is too get as much gain from your volume knob then dial in the right amount on the gain knob. I see too many people with big amps put the volume low and the gain high and wonder why they sound like mud and get buried by my smaller amp with the reverse: V high and G low. So when setting up you should keep your gain low and increase the volume as high as you can then increase gain if needed. Again sorry for the rant (yes i’m Canadian).

You should not apologise for your ethnicity, you may be Canadian which is neither here nor there but I'm sure your advice is legitimate & globally appreciated. Thank you.

Unfortunately, if you're gonna use one of the currently made woosie microphones (except the Bulletini) you have to crank the gain up to get the distortion you want. I do set my amps exactly the way you say because I use very powerful old microphones that supply their own crunch without cranking up the gain or using a pedal board with numerous goofball pedals all over it (I just use one cheap pedal for delay only).

Thanks for the vid. Any advice for left-handed players? I cup it the same way, but the active (left) hand is now at the low end of the comb. Maybe I should start holding the harp upside down? Any suggestions?

Hi Tom, I’m a singer playing blues harp on about 1 in 3 tracks in our set so I need to switch from vocals to dirty Chicago blues harmonica quickly. What set up do you recommend? Thanks man. H.

If I want a clean-ish amplified harp sound, which 🎙️ would you recommend?
@tron6009 ай бұрын
Use a sm57 or a fireball

Hey Tomlin, can I use my Guitar Amp like the Yamaha THR30 for Hormonica? Thx❤

Thank you. Do you have suggestions for smaller microphones? I think that tennisball mike is a bit too big. ;-) How about a SM58?
@TomlinHarmonica Жыл бұрын
The SM58 is pretty difficult to hold. It depends whether you want an acoustic tone or a dirty tone. For acoustic the Audix Fireball should be quite small and easy to hold. For dirty tone I would recommend the Hohner Harp Blaster.
