[Harp-L] mics?



To me there is nothing sweeter than playing right through the sound system with any decent vocal microphone.  Be it in a church or a bar. You play your best natural tone that you've developed over time and you don't need to cup a mike or bother with all the screwy things that happen to patch cords and tube amps. Just play. You get heard and all is wonderful. Amps are a necessary evil sometimes.  But a PA system is the easiest and purist way to play unimpeded and sound good.  That's my feelings towards all this "holy grail" , "mic/amp match made in heaven", "get that Chicago tone", "distortion" etc. (But hearing Annie Raines rip it up on Little Walter tunes using a bullet amped and through the PA with Paul playing guitar like there's no tomorrow is a very wonderful thing to behold)
