Thanks Jim,

The Masco is an MA-17P, that I sent to Ron Holmes to do his magic on.  We 
ended up using an SM57 and it worked perfectly.  I'm not sure exactly what 
Ron did with the input, but it was set up correctly.

We did the first jam last night and the Masco did just fine, it was actually 
perfect for the environment we were in.  I  got some excellent advice 
offlist from Stephen Schneider who's been running a jam in Houston using the 
same setup. Using some of his ideas, I think I'll be able to perfect things 
at next Sundays jam.

Now, if I can figure out a way to politely dismiss overly intoxicated "harp 
players" without causing s scene, I'll be in good shape..
