[Harp-L] Harp amp with reverb?



Every few months, I feel the need to find another "small" amp to compliment my Bassman LTD.  After a year of heavy gigging, I have the Bassman as locked in as possible for a non-gear head, but I still crave a small amp that can compete on stage.  Something that can be mic'ed front of house, but I can hear without monitors.
   
  More specifically, I want an amp with a good onboard reverb.  It needs to get as loud (or louder) then a Pro Junior, be road worthy, a good harp amp, and lightweight.  A Blues Jr. perhaps?  Try to keep any suggestions under a $1,000.
   
  We reguarily play rooms with sound guys, and sometimes the Bassman is overkill.  I have a Kalamazoo, but it isn't loud enough.  It also isn't as sturdy as other amps.  It totally rocks, but I like it too much to mess with it at gigs.
   
  I use dynamic mics, don't want to use pedals, and like the clean headroom the Bassman gives me.  I know there are a lot of great amps out there, but often times they weigh nearly as much as my Bassman.  If I wanted to lug a 40lbs plus amp, I'd just bust out the LTD.
   
  Any suggestions would be awesome!  Thanks!
