The players are Ronnie Shellist, Gregg MacKenzie, and Nic Clark, I brought two amps to the jam: Bassman and Mission 32-20. Just for fun, can you guess which player is playing which amp? No pedals or effects (not even delay) on either amp. ---------- -Rick Davis The Blues Harp Amps Blog The Mile High Blues Society Tip Jar

Rick Davis 1445 posts Mar 12, 2013 7:22 AM	In that first solo I dig the way Ronnie changes harps (and positions) on the same note on each harp. Very cool. ---------- -Rick Davis The Blues Harp Amps Blog The Mile High Blues Society Tip Jar
Mojokane 666 posts Mar 12, 2013 7:51 PM	all good..the stand out player, for me...the big guy, Nick Clark?...playing the Mission, eh? That's some big tone! I would have guessed he was using the Bassman. ---------- Why is it that we all just can't get along?< Last Edited by Mojokane on Mar 12, 2013 7:52 PM
Rick Davis 1455 posts Mar 13, 2013 4:38 PM	Here is the answer: Nic was the only player using the Bassman. Ronnie Shellist and Gregg MacKenzie were using the Mission 32-20. None of the amps were running though the PA system. The drummer was drunk on his ass in that last clip and dropping beats, but it's a jam so it's all good. ---------- -Rick Davis The Blues Harp Amps Blog The Mile High Blues Society Tip Jar
