EuroAussie Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 For me its the Marshall AS-50D or 100D. I started on the 50D and when we moved to playing pubs I bought the 100D as not only having a lovelly warm tone, multiple effects units it has also two guitar and mike inputs, which is perfect for our setup.

ParlourMan Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 +1 on the 100D, I bought one recently. Very nice. In fact it was EA who was telling me about his and that got me to take the shot.... Nice amps. Good range of sounds and if I had to, I would replace it with the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gio Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I play my HB Artist with LR Baggs M1 passive pickup through this one: http://www.philjonespuresound.com/products/?id=13 It has limits but mostly in terms of EQ. Otherwise it's the cleanest, most neutral amp I have ever tried. PJB is coming out with a new version with 2 inputs: I'll buy it as soon as it is available.

meanstreak Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I have the Fender Acoustasonic Jr DSP and love it! Only $500 it's a steal IMHO. They also have a 30 watt version for $350. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayzed and Confused Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Just wanted to chime in. I have an Acoustic B100 with a passive and an active input. Soon we will have the 4-10 box that goes with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duende Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Guys, I need a good acoustic amp, and was wondering if you guys could suggest some. Thanks. what a coincidence I just made a demo of the Vox AGA 150 acoustic amp. It is my favourite I have owned so far, because it doesn't change the guitar's tone! http://forum.gibson.com/index.php?/topic/68944-vox-aga-acoustic-amp-demo/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjl200 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I'm very pleased with the Fishman SA220. SA220 It is very lite and easy for 1 person to transport. Guitar in one hand and the amp in the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mking Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I am very pleased with my Ultrasound DS-4. Great amp and produces the natural sound of the guitar. I use an LR Baggs Venue DI. The amp has gotten great reviews. I had a DS-3 and it too was a great amp. The DS-4 has the phantom power for condenser mics and if your guitar has an active pickup, with the phantom power you don't need a battery in the guitar's pre-amp. The price of a DS-4 also makes it very attractive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertjohn Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 +1 on the posts advocating the Marshall AS 50. Great amp, good value and lots of features for us tweakers. Gigged it quite a few times in small pubs and it did a fine job. I recently sold mine and have bought a Fishman Loudbox 100 which is awesome. Much smaller but louder. Try one if you see one.

Small, clean, acoustic tone with plenty of volume for the small time playing I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 RMS.. RMSAC40. Good price, quality. Not the best, certainly. But depends what your needs are. I was just looking to make louder music with my accoustics, don't have electrics - not performing. If I want to hear the 'pure' high, lonely sound - I do it unplugged. I wanted an amp because I found it helps point out mistakes. The RMS does a good job of that! G'luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
