[Harp-L] feedback killers

[SONNYTONE@xxxxxxx]

All microphones feedback at different frequencies. I did all this testing  
using a Peavey Feedback eliminator, a 20plus band EQ that red lights every  
feeding back frequency as you play. I saw every one from 800 ohms up to 2K give  
some feedback with different mics. As you pull down that frequency, you get  
louder overall volume, BUT, you lose what is sweetest of the tone, the fullest  
range of possible sound from the harp. So I would suggest a smaller 8 band 
Boss  EQ pedal, where you can pull down some of the more notorious feeding  back 
Freq.,  like 1K, 1.2K,   you may need a 10 band to  really get them. As far as 
the other gizmos, go ahead and keep spending $400 a  pop, just my opinion, I 
like a full tone and not a watered down LOUD version. If  anyone remembers 
what playing blues is, the word Dynamics is used quite a bit by  the old timers, 
who I have had the pleasure of playing with most of them, from  Sonny and 
Brownie, to Lightning Hopkins, Muddy, Hubert, Sam Ley, list is too  long, not many 
know my true history. What some call blues with 2 guitars using  100 watt 
amps and ridiculous volume levels, forcing the harp player to try and  keep up 
volume wise, well, good luck to y'all. I am sure there is a need for  some to 
have to survive on stage, as you get older and tinitis sets in, God  bless you 
when every other word is "WHAT"???
