If he is using something like a Green Bullet then you don't want to stick anything too crunchy in front of the amp, because the harp mic is doing that already.
I tend to use my AEA R84a if the harp mic is crunchy.
I use a U87 the rest of the time- substitute any LDC in its place- 1-2ft from the mic.
I wouldn't use a distorted electric guitar approach.
Consider mixing the harp acoustically too, not just through the amp.

If you have an untreated room then go closer, but careful about putting it too close.

Quite a long article, quick skim through does suggest micing the amp as you would for guitar although also having a parallel signal to mix back in.
I hold back a bit on the volume, to keep on the clean side of dirt...
I Mike up the amp with a SM57.....
