The HARP TONE+® an outboard two band equalizer and volume control to fatten tone, add or lower volume and trim highs. The HARP OCTAVE® a cool pedal that produces a raspy tone with a rich midrange that really cuts through a mix. The HARP DELAY® is an awesome delay that adds a range of echo from the tiled room effect to slap-back to a distancing echo to a dry signal that is lightly filtered to reduce feedback. Last but not least is the HARP V2 DELAY® that passes an uneffected dry signal and add the same echo efffect as the Harp Delay to produce brighter tone than the Harp Delay. These are the only effect pedals on the market designed specifically for harp.

HOW IT ALL GOT STARTED

Born out of a love for the blues and a lifetime desire to be able to play music, I began learning blues harp and anyone who has ever played harp knows that as a natural part of the process you will became interested in vintage tube amps. Being an electronic tech by trade (30 yrs exp.) and having began my electronic education by studying vacuum tube amplification in ancient times past; I purchased some test equipment, obtained a Silvertone 1482 in disrepair and began restoration.

I enjoyed the process so much that I began a quest to build the perfect tube amp designed specifically for blues harp. I purchased an old tube stereo chassis and built a test bed to mock up and test my designs. The blues harp player is unique in that he typically uses a microphone connected to a guitar amp which has too much gain for a mic which causes feedback issues and if that isn't bad enough the frequency response is too high. I have worked extensively to engineer a preamp to overcome these problems and match it to a final stage to give the harp player the tone and range in distortion that they love.

Returning to my roots in electronics has been very rewarding. Over the last few years I have re-educated myself in the world of vacuum tubes, reading tons of technical material and designing amps as well as filtering out fact from myth. For those interested, the technical writings of Norman Crowhurst are about the best you can find, filled with facts and explanation in common sense audio amp design.

Looking for a new project I decided to build a delay designed for harp. I did my due diligence as they say and came up with the HARP DELAY®. I mentioned the delay on a forum where Ryan Hartt expressed interest. I sent Ryan the delay and he loved it. I then decided to try building a few and offer it to the harp community and it has grown from there.

Next came requests for guitar versions of my pedals. Several guitarist's had tried the harp players pedals and really liked the tone so they contacted me about guitar versions. I made a few and after a while I have decided to go ahead with production on three versions.

I want to offer thanks and recognition to all of the great people on the internet who share their work and knowledge regarding blues harp, harp amps and tube amplification in general, There are links throughout this site to some of the great sites who's resourses I found helpful.
