Picked up an early Harlequin today and all I can say is I wish I'd done it when they first came out. It's 6 watts of valve loveliness and don't be deceived by the output - it goes bloody loud.

Beautiful break up when driven hard and creamy clean when you back it off. Fantastic - just need to finish off my pedalboard and I'll be a happy boy!

Incredible - I plugged by PRS Mira into it today and just played and played, no effects just straight in. Then I plugged the strat in through just my fuzz factory I got the most amazing break up cloud9

Interesting.

Never heard of it.

How much? Where from?

I bought the amp secondhand from a session musician who used it as his main recording amp. Paid £337 for it but new they're around £640. You can get them direct from Cornford or places like Coda Music, Holiday Music, Cranes and Andertons stock them and occasionally they'll crop up on fleabay. There's 2 on at the moment, one in the traditional oxblood tolex and one in black...

if you can't find one near you if you're planning on passing near Castle Donington drop me a line and you can drop by and have a go with mine...

Cheers for the offer, chap. I may have to take you up on that as my bank account doesn't currently have the bandwidth for a £650 amp!
