There's more up-to-date info elsewhere on his site. He writes:Di Mambro Amps Introducing the "Little Boss". The best new 5 watt amp I've played thru. Hand made in Italy by harp player and artisan Federico Di Mambro. Sounds great with any mic you plug into it, whether it is a super clean dynamic or a vintage Crystal mic, you can still always get very close to "that" old Chess recording sound. Tubes: 5Y3 rectifier, 6v6, 12ax7. Paper/oil wrapped transformers are wound by hand. Point to point wired on diaelectric board. With a Jensen Alnico P10R speaker. And finally, lovingly constructed with a beautiful vintage vibe to the "tv" style cabinet. Check out Federico playing thru one.
I used the Little Boss on two songs on the CD Mongrel Mash, "Slick", and "A Fool's Alibi".
Marble Amps. Fantastic tone in a variety of sizes. I use for big stages here in North America the 4x10 version of the 60 watt Harpmaster and in Europe for more acoustic gigs, I use a 7.5 watt Max with a 10" speaker. In Finland, I have been using a 15 watt 2x8 Bluesonic with a full electric band set up with great results. AJ Folkerts really knows his amps!
The Lone Wolf Delay pedals are a really nice organic and warm sounding delay pedal that does not change the tone of your dry sound. I've got the V2 which I like using especially with smaller amps.
Edward Amps My favourite 14 watt Class A amp! My gigging and recording amp since Nov. 2002. Great crunchy warm distorion in a beautifully built package -there is a specially modified version for harp.
Also note that Carlos retunes his Golden Melodies out of their stock, ET tuning.
