[Harp-L] Tech 21 solid state amps for harmonica?

[Dan Hazen <bluesmandan76@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all. I'm tired of buying tubes. Has anyone tried the Tech 21 amps
(trademark 30 or 60) for harmonica? They're supposed to have believable
analog tube emulation. I love the sound of my tube amps, but would love to
have the near indestructible and maintenance free option of solid state,
while still getting a tube-like sound.

No dealers near me, so I'll have to buy them blind off the net. Guitar
players like 'em, but haven't heard what harp players thought. For what I
just had to drop to retube my amps (using cheap tubes at that) I can buy
one SS amp and have the money for other stuff. Plus, a power tube blew
mid-gig last night, and I think it damaged my lil marshall class 5 (which I
was using for guitar). I ended up plugging both instruments into my
harpgear 2 to get through the gig. Would love to get away from that sort of
problem.

Thanks
Dan
