Tube Down? Why?

Here's 15-year old Nic Clark of Denver CO getting monster harp tone through a STOCK Fender Deville 410 amp. No mods to the amp; it even has the stock 12AX7 preamp tubes. Nic is playing straight into the amp with no pedals, no delay, nothing. He is using a vintage Astatic JT-30 Crystal mic.

If you haven't heard Nic and his band lately, they are sounding outstanding. They'll be in Memphis in February for the IBC competition, and I expect them to do very well.

If you're around Denver tonight...

...this is shaping up to be one hella fun gig. Caldonia's is on Parker Rd just north of Illif. Boogie!

UPDATE: Jock Bartley from the band Firefall stopped in to listen to us!
