Amp question
Thu, 03/29/2012 - 17:35
Hi,
I have a chance to buy a guitar amp at cost (sadly they don't have access to harp amp) . I have access to the following amps: 3 monkeys, Egnater, Matamp, valve train, Divided, Wizard, Supro.
Any advise for me on an amp choice?
I was looking at the Egnater Rebel 20 and have a cab made with my choice of speaker. (I think that Gary Smith setup sounded good). What brand of speaker did he use?
Does it make sense to go in that direction or should I look at a specialty harp amp?

The Egnater Rebel 20 would be a good choice. Gary used a Jensen P10R Reissue speaker in his cabinet. If the Supro is a vintage amp (1950's or 60's) the Supro wins hands-down, especially if has a 10". The Fender Super Champ XD sells for $300 delivered (musicians friend) and has effects built in... killer deal and a good sounding amp for an out-of-the-box model.
