I'd say this teensy weensy itsy bitsy green non polka dot ampini would be perfect for you

Ha! I assumed fact man was a cut out until he upped and walked!

Whaaat? I never knew!

In ears or stage monitors do a job, but they're different from an amp and cab. If they weren't different some people wouldn't prefer them. I can use any system, doesn't bother me, but if money and weight ceased to be issues I would go with 8x10. It's the loveliest thing. Although knowing me I'd want two of them.

This is another study on bass - rather than the bass. https://youtu.be/fIWEGYDG-Ig

Nice! Thanks for sharing

I work with a professional singer. She uses an iPad. So there's one of his arguments out the window. There's a saying: all you can do is keep your side of the street clean. You can't control how others react to you. Sounds like you have played your part quite correctly, the other guy was the c°ck.

Played a bar in Portishead last night. Tiny space allocated to us, punters appeared to be reserved, middle class folk out for a quiet night. Luckily we have a drummer who can actually play quietly if he so chooses. So we started lively but not too loud. Amazed by the response. Loud applause and cheering and a few songs later folk dancing and having a ball. So many people wanting to tell us how awesome we were I wondered if we'd ever get to pack down. A lovely end to a great run of gigs.

Funnily enough, I used a 1k head into a single 12 this evening. Sounded super.

Thank goodness for the block user function eh?

Just finished playing a soul set to a typical afternoon crowd at the Bath and West. I love a big stage, proper PA. I love less falling over and cracking ribs on them. Ho hum. On to the next one.

Another 3 hour Bandeoke, this time in a wet beer garden. Hadn't previously met drummer or guitarist, neither knew one another either, nor had they done anything like it before. With a deluge nearly emptying the party just before we arrived we had every right to anticipate disaster. But 30 odd brave souls stayed out and had an absolute blast. Two proper band gigs tomorrow, very different proposition.

I was exactly the same, it took lots of coaxing to get me up there. Now I love it. Doing it again tonight and we've never as much as met the drummer or the guitarist. They've never done it before nor do they know each other. The buzz is tremendous.

It's really good. Folk find it way more enjoyable than karaoke and getting songs thrown at me when I don't know them at all is brilliant discipline

Just home from a brilliant Bandeoke night in a music pub in Wiltshire. Loads of people getting up to sing and people head hunting us for other venues. This is almost my ideal band - no rehearsals, play anything we're asked regardless of whether we know it, and somehow pull the whole thing off.

My drive pedals are third in the chain (in the FX loop) with an envelope filter too. I have decided I really need another X5. What a pedal board that will be.

I took it to a band practise once just to see how it might keep up, didn't plan on using it for the whole rehearsal, but in the end I did! It was loud, and had a great sound. If they did a 250 - 300 watt version of this I'd be very interested.

Entirely silent and yes it can be used without a speaker. The Bluetooth connectivity makes it a very good option for this.

Out of all I've tried I would recommend the Boss SY-1.
