[Harp-L] mics
Just a head's up from May 21 - 23, while the Masterclass is going on at the
Hilton, I will have my own conference room right next door at the Crown
Plaza. I will have close to 15 of the hottest mics from my stock, all worked
on by the master Chuck Gurney. Plus, I will have some super hot crystal
mics, and NOT the Astatic just going out of business ones. Just off the top of
my head, a stock 1960 Shure 707A with original 99B crystal element, the
later years had those versus the earlier R7's.. A super hot Brush crystal,
and a hot shure crystal from 1-73.. The Controlled magnetics and reluctances
will be from the 50's, 99H, 99G, and if it is any other letter, it is
guaranteed to be a bomb. I am at the mercy of Weber speakers, but I am hoping
to bring an Avenger to sell at a discount, stock price is $1895 plus 65 for
custom cover and $75 for pop out casters professionally installed, as the
amp is 56 pounds. So far my first 8 orders wanted casters so I will have
that as an option. With the $100 shipping and supplies, it is over $2050 but
can be had for $1850.00 first to buy gets it. I will also have a Cruncher
for sale at $1395.00, versus retail of $1560.. I will be there all three
days, offering support on the amps as you demo them without any interference
or noise going on, just positive energy allowed. I may do a short seminar on
Sonny if we get enough people, I am ready. These mics will be hotter than
anything else out there that weekend as I pay more knowing Chuck will sell
me hotties, then I mount them in the smaller Turner with very small fin for
grip, indented volume controls.
IF Weber does not come through, I will have my personal Avenger shipped out
so you can try it and order it, as I am very confident when you feel the
oooomph this amp provides you will want one of your own.
Charlie Musselwhite has ordered his already, and for Charlie I am
building a Super Avenger, which will have in place of the Weber 12" speaker, a
vintage PM magnet, the giant lug of magnet on top from the late 40's to
early 50's 12" Magnavox, and the real deal vintage Jensen P10Q from 1955 in
place of the Weber 10".. I have the ability to build a couple more of these,
just ask for pricing when you get to my spot. I am there to have fun, blow a
lot of harp and certainly will do a small Sonny Terry seminar, the main
reason is so you can hear and feel for yourself what everyone is so excited
about with the Cruncher, along with the new beast, the never before speaker
configuration 45 watt Avenger, with stock NOS preamp tubes and all the
other quality parts that go into a Sonny Jr amplifier.
I would like to announce that one of THE best European players,
Harmonica Henry, is now a Sonny Jr endorser, he bought an earlier 410 and
will be getting his Cruncher soon. Henry has TONE, greazy fat Tone and it is
an honor that he wants to play Sonny Jr amps. Combined with Matyas
Probojszki those are two incredible harp players. The price of the Cruncher will
need to go up soon, the high quality we will not budge on is getting more
costly and so far no one has complained about making the plunge and fighting
the fire breathing wives. Look forward to seeing you there, I am sure I will
see many of my amp customers there and will be happy to shake hands and
offer anything you need.. Last post about this. It's a new month and this is
my first blurb about it, so I have a couple more in case some things
change.. All the best. Sonny Jr.
