EQUIPMENT

I maintain and service a full set of diatonic harmonicas including some low- and special-tuned, and standard- and augmented-tuned chromatics. I play through various (e.g., cupped crystal and controlled reluctance bullet) mics into a 1952 Premier Model 50 (3-watt class A) or a customized 18-watt class AB amp; and where appropriate through a Beta 58 vocal mic into the PA. I play my guitar (Ventura strat copy) through a Harman Vocalist 5 pedal into a Fender Mustang III modeling amp. Have band room with drums.
