HarpGear Amps
I don't see too much chatter here about HarpGear. I know David is an endorser for MegaTone amps and I will someday fork over the cash to get one of those as well, but I would like to say, I am trying out the new HarpGear Hurricane amp. Quite impressive. I love the tone and with a built in reverb it is fantastic.
It is loosely modelled after a Fender Princeton Reverb. Cudos to Brian Purdy at HarpGear. It is a great addition to the line up.
I also have a double trouble of his but it doesn't hold a candle to the Hurricane in my mind.
Cheers all.

I have been playing on a G Harp and the reverb is working well on the 1 hole blow. I don't have any harps lower than that at this point but the reverb keeps up with the G.
As for feedback, it does not cause any weirdness with the reverb tank that I can tell.
I haven't had it very long but the playing I have done with it I liked it very much.
I belive the HG50 is pretty much a moded "bassman". Jason Ricci uses and endorses the HG50. Never tried it though.
I would expect my next big amp purchase will be a mega tone.
Cheers.

I've been playing through a HarpGear 35 (2x10" speekers) & I think it's great for straight blues...for the stuff I play anyhow.
Id like to try the hurricane. I purchased a HG35 in a pawn shop and I really didnt care for it. Sold it and got myself a bassman.
Hows the reverb on feedback? Did you notice a difference? How deep(low frequency) was the reverb?
