I'm curious... Why are you so fixed on getting a Meteor amp, and why are you having such a tough time finding one? I've seen your posts on Harp-L.

Meteor sounds great the big meteor is hard to get on with in most spaces. It is really loud where it sounds great below it it doesn't do a whole heck of alot for me.
A very close friend owns one and can't use it in most rooms due to volume vs tone.
Personally I bet the mini 15 is the best of the meteor line.
Nothing but good things to say about the sound when used in the right setting. Build quality is also fantastic.
Good luck finding one. Have you tried just ordering one from scooter?

Hello, Just want answer Rick Davis and Willspear.
I just love the sound of that amp. I tried to reach Scooter many times and no answer at all my friends. I heard he stopped making them.
It's really hard to find one. I'm trying everyday, I'm telling you.
If you hear about something, you know that I want one. So please, send me an email asap at ricklblues@hotmail.com or rick@ricklblues.com
Thanks guys and I appreciate your comments.

Thanks a lot LittleBubba, it's very kind of you.
This is me and the sax player who make the arrangements and I write the lyrics and the music.

Rick, I too have had no luck getting in touch with Scooter. I tried emailing him over a month ago because I had questions about his amps' specs for the harp amp database I've been putting together. I've not gotten a response. I haven't attempted to call yet though.

Hi Hawk,
I know, that's weird, hope he's ok. A guy named Paul Marconi told me that he send an email to Scooter 2 weeks ago and he received an answer from him. He said I'm still in business but getting hard time to get the boards and chassis for the small amps.
Don't know what to think about it.

Scott shipped a 50 watt amp to me (I live in Australia) just on 12 months ago and it is everything i had hoped for.Yes it can take a little while to work the dials out but once you find the sweet spot it is pure cream to my ears.
