I am looking for an acoustic amp just for home use and want it small but with vocal capability. I have looked at fishman, ultrasound, aer, and ashdown. Though ashdown may not be the best it comes with a cherry cabinet so my wife will probably not object to leaving it out and the factory reseals are currently down to $340 with full warranty and 45 day return. Does anyone know any downside to these units.
Thanks,
Steve

What litle I've heard from them, sounded great!

The Fishman and AER are probably better, but at that price it's a no-brainer. Go for it

For that price range, you might be able to find a used Trace Elliott TA50R.

All I know is at NAMM, ashdown had the best looking, most scantily clad, biggest boobed bimbos in the entire hall. And THAT's saying a lot.

Entry-level Trace. Half the output and a much older design. The Ashdown is a better bet. Incidentally The Ashdown Company emerged from what was left of Trace after they folded the first time.

Thanks, Temp. This is the type of information that I find so valuable day in and day out on these forums.
