Kenji's Big Harp Amp

<p> Hi. My name is Leonardo Kenji. I am an amateur harmonica player. I am 41 years old and I've been playing since I was 14. During these years, I've been involved in several harmonica initiatives here in Brazil. I've played with several nice people and currently I am involved in the "<a href="http://kenjishikida.blogspot.com.br/" target="_blank">Kenji &amp; Friends</a>" project, which is basically making movies of me playing with several friends I have. Some are also amateurs, some are skilled professionals, so, as I say, "the best in Kenji &amp; Friends is the friends part" :-)</p> <p>  </p> <p> Unfortunately, taxes in Brazil are quite high, so in order to buy a decent equipment here, sometimes we have to pay twice the price we find in US. And despite I have a pretty decent life (I am married for more than 20 years and I have a lovely 7-year old daughter, we both work), I really can't afford buying such an expensive amp.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>My dream is to buy the best amp I ever tried: a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe.</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> This kind of amp <a href="http://www.guitarshop.com.br/combo-fender-234-0200-900-hot-rod-deluxe-se?search=hot%20rod" target="_blank">costs BRL 5000 in my city</a></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>EUR 1665</strong> <strong>Target</strong></p> <p> <strong>EUR </strong>100 Campaign (mailing costs, stickers, postcards)</p> <p> <strong><strong>EUR </strong>1765</strong> <strong>Sub Total</strong></p> <p> <strong>EUR </strong>-52,95 taxes (3%)</p> <p> <strong>EUR </strong>-88,25 KKBB (5%)</p> <p> <strong>EUR </strong>-130,61 paypal (7.4%)</p> <p> <strong><strong>EUR </strong>1493,19</strong> <strong>Total</strong>  <strong>=&gt; 1492</strong> <strong>Amp net price (BRL 5000)</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> Actually I have a amp, that I can use in small gigs (it was my lovely wife's present last year) but it can't handle a band with a drummer. My <a href="http://www.playtech.com.br/combo-guitarra-fender-mustang-i-v2-32095.aspx/p?gclid=Cj0KEQjwtu3GBRDY6ZLY1erL44EBEiQAAKIcvmdKtsIickP44QKKvt1QrNtdfzTkF0FX0i5HYqN75xUaAtAt8P8HAQ" target="_blank">amp is good</a>, but it has only 20 watts.</p> <p>  </p> <p> With a big amp, I can finally play with a band, getting the tone I'd love.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Also, even local harmonica players in my town can benefit from this amplifier, since it's not unusual for us to exchange equipment on gigs.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Untitled-1490829930" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/408127/Untitled-1490829930.png"></p> <p>  </p>
