Hi Guys,
Just uploading a new set of videos from the Harmonica Day in Brighton recently and got some great footage.

This is Steve Baker playing a great 3rd position number called double crossed & Blue with great dicipline.

He is using My Fender pro junior Amp (the tweed one in the background) with a Greg 57 with bulletizer and through a digitech RP 255 with the Richard Hunter Patch. An interesting sound I think.

Hope you have time for some comments.

A "Greg 57" - an amusing alternate name for an Ultimate 57. Steve is an awesome player, super nice guy, and knows more about harmonicas and tuning than anyone else I've met.

Hey Oxharp. Has your Pro Jr been modded in any way?

@ bluzlvr
Thanks for the comment and yes it has been modified abit.

I swapped out the speaker for a Webber sig10 and my buddy Johnny Hewitt did his stuff and it sound like this now in its new reincarnation.

This is a video of Johnny playing the Amp with a Dirty Black cr and an old 80's Anologue delay.

Sounds pretty different from the Steve Baker sound dont you think?

I can only assume that Steve was using the RP to shape his sound and maybe warmed his sound a little going into your amp but would have sounded very similar going directly to a PA. Your Buddy Johnny was really using your amp in a more traditional way to shape his sound. They both sounded great.
