I can empathize with you most definitely. I`ve owned some pretty cool smaller amps and have gotten use to playing on AUTO PILOT. To name a few I`ve used a tweed Champ a silver faced Champ a black faced Princeton, Kalamazoo ,Supro,SilvertoneAAAAHHHH I guess to some degree I`ve given up , not really I`ve just taken a reipreive. I went out last year and baught a ,new old stock,93 Super 4x10 65 watts........and now ..................I can hear myself. Sorry for ranting. What I plan to do is find a small amp that has the tone I like, sit it on top of the Super, and mic. it.The best of both worlds. Dont get me wrong I love the Super, but as most harp players I know .Im always searching.............. Thanks For Listening Daine Paul Russell
