[Harp-L] Kalamazoo

[SONNYTONE@xxxxxxx]

In retrospect, I would have to say I have used more Kalamazoo's than DM10's 
 for consistency, so would give the edge to the 12 watt max  Kalamazoo. 
Always contact Greg Heumann to see if he has any Kalamazoo's  first. My 
engineer and I have worked with Greg and he with us so we designed a  unique line 
out system, like my Cruncher only designed specifically for the Kal  which 
gives it the edge as it pure vintage sound over and new amp that is trying  to 
come close to this sound. For me, and I have a live from Chicago Blues 2001 
 CD where I used my Kal with what I feel is a great mic matchup, the 533 
Spere o  dyne, Cotton's mic in the 70's, the Kalamazoo is the true Chicago 
tone. The DM10  is a very good amp, but due to its construction and speaker 
setup, is limited in  its range of tone and you need to really change a lot of 
things with it to make  it optimal. The Kal is plug in and play. 
I have a good supply of Chuck Gurney 1950's controlled reluctance elements, 
 along with my smaller Turner shells with indented volume pots, click on 
each  number, for one week I will run a special for $250 plus shipping and  
paypal costs if you choose that route. These cost me nearly my selling price 
of  $295 to build. I have either CR or CM. See Products on my website to get 
an idea  of the great cupping size these Turner mics have. Colors I have are 
5 metallic  teal, (light green gloss), one burgundy, and two bright red 
gloss, with two  nice gray shells on the way.  The slight fin only acts as a 
nice grip  holder. I may have one or two with no fin. Be my guest and see what 
you get on  ebay as far as elements, no one is going to tell me they got 
perfect elements  every time they shelled over over $190 per element which all 
the harp players  have driven the price to. I have gotten more 8 - 9/10's 
that have had to go to  Chuck, but you would need to contact him to see if he 
will be taking on work at  any given moment. His price is what it is. If he 
is working on them, there is no  one that has come forth to say they can do 
as good as job as Chuck. He gets what  he gets for what could be hours of 
painstaking work, your other choice is to  bend over take the $190 loss or be 
a snake and try and pawn it off on ebay.
