Mm, well you got the AC15 on the list. I agree it should be, whatever the current version is. I recorded a couple of tracks with one in 2011 and was impressed. Kinda chagrined I'd turned my nose up at it in earlier sessions, as it sounded fuller and richer than any of the 5 watt jobs I'd brought to the studio especially for the harp, rejecting the house amp AC15.

I'm inclined to agree, SuperBee. I added it in. I've gotten info back from Kott on the HF so it's added now. All the Magnatones are added. I got specs on the Mergili BBE from harpletunnel. Things are coming along.

Has anyone given 1847's suggestion of the HK Tubemeister 5 a try with harp?
I'm reluctant to add it if I don't have at least one harp player out there vouch for an amp's harp-friendliness. One good example I can give you on this....many might think that the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe would make a good harp amp. Truth is, for whatever reason, it just doesn't have good tonal characteristics for harp. It's a smashing guitar amp, but with harp it falls short. Which is why I didn't add it to the list.

the tubemeister 5 is an all tube amp
plugs straight into your computer
i'd bet money it would be top on the list!
it is completely bad ass
but then again i could make a solid state amp sound awesome.

Alright Bobby. I'll take your word on this. It's getting added to the Peewee Division.
