Special topic - “AMPLIFIED HARP” - My next webinar is one I’ve been planing for a long time and will be the first on a topic that is near and dear to me - Amplified Harmonica Playing.

How can you get the best sound out of your amp and mic? What is the difference between various bullet microphones? Don’t all mics, amps, and effects basically work the same? I’ve taught many absolute beginners and just as many seasoned pros a thing or two about amplified harmonica playing, and I will have some Live Q&A time, so reserve your spot for the first session in this series!

Marine Band von Joe Filisko als Bonus zum Webinar

Beitrag: # 124767Beitrag Juke »

Übrigens, wer schlanke 250 USD für die Teilnahme am Webinar mit Joe Filisko überweist, bekommt eine originale Custom Marine Band von Joe dazu.
Ein angemessener Preis, finde ich. Die Stückzahlen sind aber begrenzt. Man sollte sich also sputemn, wenn man entsprechende Gelüste hegt.
