Changed Site Configuration

I have not been able to make changes to this site since Blogger.com locked me out of publishing. I finally got around to installing WordPress so now I can update the site again.

Please be patient while I finish the conversion.

As soon as I can, I will start adding content again.

Harplinks.com expiring

A while ago I created a website called HarpLinks.com that is a listing of about 5,000 harmonica related links. It has been a useful resource for some people, but it has not paid its way. I am letting it go.

If anyone out there has a use for the domain name HarpLinks.com, let me know and we can arrange a transfer of ownership. It has a Google pagerank of 3 and 15,000 back links. It should be useful to someone.

On April 6th it disappears. I will keep the data as here in case it is useful at www.harpamps.com/harplinks

Name this Amp

Anyone recognize this? I’m thinking it’s from an organ, but it could be a guitar amp.

Dukane tube PA

This is a Dukane, 1U460A all tube amp. 4 channels, plus 2 phono type channels. It screams beyond the 30w rating. It’s stock as far as I know and I do not have any of the mic transformers in the amp. They are not needed for guitar. I have used it mainly for electric guitar. jerry

Newcomb E-25



I picked up this Newcomb E- 25 a while back and it is a great little 25w amp. I retrofitted the screw on mic terminals to 1/4″ for guitar playing and it’s perfect for acoustic guitar.

Jam while you still can….

Masco Mania




Here is a newly acquired, right out of the box vintage Masco ME-18P. This unit has the phono/turntable on top, hence the P in the model #. I just quickly soldered in a 1/4″ connector for a speaker out and played my Seagull thru it. It has a piezo pickup, cedar top, etc. and it was spectacular. This amp is 18w output but more than enough volume for anyone. I could not crank it very far before it got really loud. I will try an electric thru it soon. I have not tried the turntable with a record but it does spin when I turn on the switch on top. It plays 78s, 45s, 33s. I have attached some pics. This unit arrived in the electronics store in Denver where I got it today on Nov. 1, 1957 and has all the paperwork and a letter from Mrs. Mark A. Simpson, including the orig shipping box and packing. What a beaut! Jam on.

ME-27 and ME-36




I own 3 Mascos that I use mainly for acoustic guitar. The 3rd, an ME-18P, was acquired on 4.11.09 and is listed above. The above models are ME-27 and ME-36, both restored to more original than modified other than connectors. Whoever owned the ME-27 before me put a toggle switch for off/on bypassing the knob on front. It now works only as a treble control. The tone of these are unbelievable. Here’s the good part; my Dad found it in an estate sale about 10 years ago for $3.
