As I said in an earlier message, I am new at this and picked up that funky
looking little PIGNOSE and I am glad I did based on all I hear. Funny - the
first nice think my wife said about ANYTHING harmonica related that was
enthusiastic was that the Pignose was cute, so I got that going for me.

I agree with John Walden whole heartedly.

It 's an incredible practice amp for the harp and it has a huge tone!
Perfect for any harp player to practice with, but especially ideal for
a beginner.
Here's a couple of  YouTube clips of me playing through one.

I think a GREAT small amp for ANYONE is the smallest "Pig Nose"..
The solid state amp that runs on batteries.
It's too small to play in an amplified environment, but distorts
beautifully.
Great for practice with, or even for recording with.
I've used mine many times on recording sessions....  Mine is about 12
years
old now, and it just gets better and better with use..
Best wishes
