Roger C. Wade & The Houserockers - Playing With Fire *live*
This one was recorded live on July 20, 2024 in Klein Trebbow, Germany, as part of their Hofkonzerte series.
It was a fantastic evening, 30°C, cool beer and great people.
Memorable!
This is an original song by Roger C. Wade that heavily echoes one of his main mentors, William Clarke.

The Hohner Super 64X Performance chromatic harmonica. Acoustic (jazzy) and electric (bluesy)
Переглядів 2 тис.5 місяців тому
A look at the Hohner Super 64X Performance chromatic harmonica. Sound example - something acoustic that is a bit jazzy (well for me anyway...) and a blues stomper through an amp. The Hohner Super 64X Performance is an amazing instrument that is an upgrade for my trusty 64 Chromonica. Is it worth the extra cash? Well, have a listen and see what you think. Bye for now. Roger

I found this one when dusting through my collection of outtakes, both from the rehearsal room and studio, on tape and digital. Kinda nice..... No title so simply "Slow in D". I don't even know who is on bass and when it was recorded, so I have included various album covers from over the years. The recording quality wasn't fantastic but I have polished it a bit... Roger C.

A video showing an alternative to the big chromatic. Here I compare three harmonicas - the 64 Chromonica from Hohner. That's the one we all know, played by Little Walter, George Smith, William Clarke, Carey Bell, Rod Piazza etc. The second is a School Band from Hohner, made from the late 30s to the 50s. The one I show here is the tenor version, meaning it is the first two octaves of the big 64 ...

A fun version of the W. Harris song about the water of life! Stef and I are rather partial to the odd dram and have several songs in the repertoire about having a good time!

    • @rogerwade4230
      @rogerwade4230 6 місяців тому

      Sure. There is a little light that goes from orange to green when the pedal receives phantom power. If it doesn't, then it just uses battery. Works well. The LED scale that is operated by pushing the button shows how much battery life is left. Simple but effective. Great pedal! I would not be without it, either straight into tur PA or into an amp.

    I like all 3, Shure Black CR and astatic are a bit similar, although astatic seems to me to have a slightly greater range of dynamics, to be more versatile, then it depends a lot on the player, I have been using astatic 151 for many years, I have a lot of practice with that and I prefer it, it also affects the taste when listening or trying something new, thanks for this test

      @@stevebakerbluesharp I think you and the gang have done the harmonica scene a great service. This is an excellent mic! I have bought two! Of course vintage mics can be great, some would maintain fantastic. The new HB52 is a workhorse that does the job very very well. I hope my video show the differences, at least with me and my mics and setup. Subtle. All good mics! Highly recommended for the money, quality and in general for providing the scene with a great new addition to the mic world. R

      Hi Stevie Bernath , you can buy the HB52 under €200 if you look around on the internet (Musicstore.com) . The HB52 is a great microphone, just tested mine today and I'm really convinced. BTW for a goodworking Shure Black CR Element you have to pay €200 - €450 and that's just the element. Big disadvantage with the old elements is that when you drop them they easily break. Over the years I broke a couple of mine. That problem you wil not have with the HB52 if you drop it it still works perfectly.

    Hallo Roger ... Die Unterschiede die ich hören kann sind nicht wirklich groß ... das Shure kingt meines Erachtens etwas kompakter und dichter ... Das Astatic wirkt ein bisschen luftiger und das Hohner hat ein Tick mehr Spitzen ... Ich für meinen Teil verwende ein Shure mit white CR von 1956 von JJ Jürgen ... dann hab ich noch ein Shure Black CR von 1952, als drittes verwende ich noch das Jason Richie Mic mit dynamischer Kapsel welches auch sehr gut klingt und etwas fetter ist als die Shure`... Das Mic von Martin hab ich auch, das ist mir aber etwas zu klein, klingt aber auch gut ... Hab mir auch schon überlegt das Hohner zu kaufen, bin mir aber noch nicht so sicher ... Ich muss es mal antesten ... als Amp benutze ich den Seydel MK ll mit nem Weber Retro Specker, der hat mehr Druck in den Tiefen und ne ordentlich dreckige Kante ... Als Alternative benutze ich noch das T-Rex Akustik Gitarren Preamp mit vorgeschaltetem Boss BluesDriver als Zerre ... Ne Super Kombination, weil alle Effekte die ich brauche im T-Rex beinnhaltet sind : Rev. Dly, Chr, und Comp... dazu verfügt es noch über eine Boost Taste für Solospiel ... Klingt alles richtig ordentlich ... Letztendlich ist das alles wie immer persönliche Geschmackssache ... und hängt von den einzelnen Komponenten ab ... Danke für deinen Vergleichstest ... das hilft sicher dem einen oder anderen bei der Entscheidungsfindung ... Bin dieses Jahr wieder in Klingenthal ... vielleicht sieht man sich ja .. Beste Grüße aus Austria, Gerd
