The Harptone 30212 in level 2 tint



* Sound samples to be posted soon *


Available in 6, 8, 10, 18, 25, 30 and 40 watts, these amps are not to be confused with generic tweed circuitry. The Harptone Series incorporates features that virtually eliminate feedback and allow the punch that you need to cut through the mix. The circuit runs a unique phase inverter which includes an adjustable feedback control. That coupled with low preamp / high power tube plate voltages, very specific power stage filtering and special coupling capacitor values is what makes these amps work extremely well for Harp.
