Does the cockney thing still include the old "rhyming slang?"

Good luck...

 

BTW, my little PA takes up less room than the big tube amp - and it's easier to move parts into different places. <grin>

About anything with a 100-200 watt mixer and 10-12 inch speaker enclosures qualify. Even a non-powered mixer and a couple small powered speakers such as some 10-inch woofer and tweeter outfits made by Kustom and many others.

 

Modular gives you more options to store, too, in more pieces that individually weigh less and are individually smaller. You can run a guitar through 'em, a mike, various sorts of "players." Haul it to a duet or trio gig as the only piece of amplification equipment, too. It won't break windows maybe, or sound like a given guitarist but...

 

Fishman makes a very light solo acoustic act outfit that some guys swear by at under US $1,000 street price. It's something like 36 pounds and has a "stovepipe" type speaker design. It probably ain't best for a jazz sound electric guitar, but...
