RE: [Harp-L] best small tube amp?



I think that depends on your price range. There are lots of harp-specific tube amps out there in low-wattage versions but they tend to be pricey. I've played with the VHT Special 6 and it's all it's cracked up to be on this forum. Very solid tone right out of the box, and reasonably priced. I passed on it, though, because I have an early-to-mid-60s Supro 16T that is absolutely awesome at about 4 watts. I haven't found anything in a small wattage amp that I like better.
