Any harp players out there play clean, besides the jazz guys?

Hey, BTW, I've got a '65 blackface Pro Reverb stashed in my closet. How
is this regarded as a harp amp? Because I usually play acoustic music,
I'm not well veresed these details. Iron Mike? Anyone else?
As for the clean sound, isn't that the real tone test? I once sat across
a small table from Portnoy and played a bunch of fiddle tunes for him
(which he liked a lot), and then he played some blues stuff for me. His
acoustic tone was way cool.
