HarpGear Amplification offers harp amps specifically voiced for harmonica players who are tired of rigging amps to kind of work for harp playing. There are a plethora of amps out there that can be made to be acceptable harp amps. Usually you change some preamp tubes and the speaker and then you have something that will work for you. With our amps they not only come with the correct speaker and tube combinations but, they also come with the circuitry specifically designed to accentuate the tonal qualities most harp players find desirable in an amp. When you buy a HarpGear amplifier you are buying a quality amplifier that will make you sound your best and last you a lifetime. We sell a full line of amplifiers from the smaller 5 watt HG2 that Adam Gussow plays to the HG50 50W amplifier that Jason Ricci plays. We do this because most harp players are looking for an amp that will easily give them what they need in a package they can actually get around with. These amps also have a line out so you can run it directly to the PA and use the amp as a monitor. Then you can be as loud as you would like through the PA and get your sound out there while maintaining the nice round brown distortion we all love. These amp has been very well received by professionals like John Nemeth, Jason Ricci, Dennis Gruenling, and Adam Gussow as well as plenty of other great professional players and amateur players who are looking for an amp to use as they develop their own sound. Check out some video sound samples here and on youtube. You will see the cabinet is beautifully finished with a durable lacquer coating or tolex and the electronics are painstakingly precise to ensure you have a great amp you will love for years to come. If you have any questions feel free to call or email me and ask. I always love talking to other harmonica players and will do anything I can to help you with the correct decision even if it means not going with one of my amplifiers. http://www.harpgear.com/
-"I got the amp (5F1 Standard) last night just before my gig so I baptized it in the fire so to speak. I had my Bassman as usual but decided to leave it in the truck as the first set is always mellow and tends to be ultra quiet. I started out the night with your little guy and it was awesome! I never bothered to take the Bassman out of the truck. I was very pleased with your product and will happily consider it my main rig for the smaller-mid size rooms we play. My bassist loved it too and didn't notice until the end of the night that I didn't have my Bassman. My only regret is that I didn't purchased one of your amps sooner."
Take care.

-The Harp Gear 30 arrived on my doorstep on Thursday the 2nd August very well packed I might add, we had those little foam shell things everywhere and the kids enjoyed exploding the little plastic airbags!
The amp is a 'bloody beauty' which is ok language here in Oz. I am a Design and Technology teacher maybe the guys in US are still called Shop teachers but what the hey I know quality craftmanship and your cabinet and tolex work is excellent.The weight of the amp makes me smile after heaving a Fender Super Reverb around for the passed 15 years! The amp arrived the day before some weekend gigs Friday night in a bar and Sunday at a Yacht Club on our Swan River. Well that amp you make is a bloody beauty alright, just what I wanted, plenty of bass,great tone and loud.I haven't tried the line out yet but what a great idea. I honestly cannot believe the sound that comes out of just two 8" speakers.The amp is a harp players dream a portable fat sound! Thank you very much you definitely talk the talk and walk the walk no BS from you.
-All the best Dave
"I own many vintage amps and one big custom harp amp. This custom Champ-amp packs a big punch, and doesn't get it's tone from the distortion like similar sized amps, but rather it gives you a warm full sound, and the tone gets enhanced from the overdrive you get. A BIG sound in a small package....can't wait to try Brian's other amps."
-Dennis Gruenling
"I'm in love all over again!"

I never had much luck with amps. Feedback, tone quality. Based on the endorsements alone I'd buy sight unseen. I think its great what your doing for amplified harp and hope to be in touch soon. Peace from Canada, Darren.
