Inspired by the outstanding performance of the FATCAB™ , the speaker that I developed over the years and still play live today, I set myself the task of developing a speaker that was as compact as possible, yet still sounded good, to match the BluGuitar AMP1. For me, only a 12" speaker came into question, as I lack the low-mid foundation of 10" speakers. It was therefore clear that the 12" speaker would be the minimum size of the cabinet. On this basis, I experimented with the cabinet depth and various bass reflex constructions and set-ups. Open cabinet designs were also used. It quickly became clear that an opening in the cabinet provides a higher bass resonance, which gives clean and distorted sounds a special airiness. It must not be very large, otherwise important resonances would disappear. As a result, the speaker then sounds "small". On the other hand, only a closed cabinet design delivers the optimum punch for rock sounds. This gave rise to the idea of the small enclosure opening in the NANOCAB, which you can open or close yourself in just a few simple steps. To achieve even more warmth, the speaker was mounted on the baffle from behind and a Basket Weave front covering was chosen.The test of various prototypes led to an astonishing result: no matter what style I play, from clean to crunch to high gain, whether jazz, blues or rock - the combination of NANOCAB and AMP1 sounds simply perfect! Thanks to its bass reflex tuning, the NANOCAB has a really big tone with unprecedented low bass. It's also my personal favourite speaker for the living room, as it sounds absolutely balanced and rich even at low volumes. It's just as amazing how well the "little one" asserts itself in the band. The NANOCAB fits into a large suitcase and, thanks to its compact size, can be transported on a plane, train or motorbike. The BluGuitar NANOCAB is the smallest 1x12" cabinet with the biggest possible sound - an absolute reference as a compact cabinet that has no real competitor.

It was developed with the inspiring support of professional harmonica players and sets new standards for the sound of legendary vintage harmonica microphones.Perfect for the artist's creative output, it can be held very comfortably for long periods of time and is suitable for cupping to create the typical Bues harp sound. It blends seamlessly with the artist's emotional output to maximise sound quality and musical expression.The uncompromising design is tailored to the needs of touring professionals. The HB52 combines fantastic sound quality with optimum ease of use and maximum durability.Compact dimensions. Big sound. Easy handling:The HB52 is the perfect size for cupping and easy handling. It blends seamlessly with the artist's emotional output to maximise sound quality and musical expression.Vintage sound paired with modern precision:Inspired by the sound of legendary vintage harmonica microphones and developed in close collaboration with professional players to fulfil the essential requirements. Manufactured to state-of-the-art standards with high-quality components and robust metal parts for maximum durability.Boutique features meet state-of-the-art manufacturing:Handcrafted with great attention to detail in our in-house factory. The hammer finish not only looks incredibly good, it also promises maximum durability and the lustre of the polished, chrome-plated grille will last for years. The Bourns® potentiometer allows the volume to be precisely adjusted (can be deactivated if required) and the gold-plated XLR contacts ensure reliable, loss-free signal transmission.At the heart of the Harp Blaster: the capsule:The capsule combines sE's many years of experience in dynamic capsule design and acoustics with HOHNER's accumulated harmonica expertise of over 160 years. The sensitive capsule responds immediately to hand position and musical expression. Thanks to the high output level and high output impedance, amps can be driven directly without additional impedance converters or intermediate catch-up amplifiers. Proven neodymium magnets, tight manufacturing tolerances and the finest workmanship ensure outstanding sensitivity and first-class sound quality. In contrast to ceramic or piezo transducers, the dynamic capsule is insensitive to impacts on hard surfaces. It withstands harsh environmental conditions and retains its sound quality for years.Full metal housing - no sensitive plastic parts:The highly resistant die-cast zinc alloy is designed for years of stage use. The corrosion-free and deformation-proof material, together with the finishing, promises absolute reliability. The all-metal housing is manufactured to the highest standards and has no plastic parts. The microphone is extremely robust. You can drop it, kick it and/or hammer nails into it.
