>From Tom Fine: "... if you want to sound anywhere 
remotely like Little Walter or his class of harp players, you gotta
overdrive a tube amp and even 
overdrive your cheapo crystal microphone by cupping it close to the harp..."

The classic sound is very specifically the Asiatic JT30 microphone plugged
into a "tweed" Fender Champ or its Gibson equivalent from the same era. For
many years the JT30 was the cheapest microphone available.
