Location: DFW, TX | I have been thinking of getting a good little amp to play on from time to time. I keep hearing good things about the Roland AC-60 amp. Is there any others that sound this good for a better price? I was thinking around $100 maybe for an amp..
Thanks,
-Nate |

Location: Michigan | I have little experience other that what I have tried and I found the fender acoustasonic amps produce a wonderful acoustic sound (no effects). They are more than $100 but I have seen several of the Acoustasonic 30s in the $200 range on CL. |

I think it may be hard to find a "good" acoustic apm for #100.00. Due a search (under post a poll button)as this topic has been talked about quite often. If that doesn't help you try Craigslist. a ton of quality gear going cheap due to the economic situation. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | See if you can find an Epiphone Regent. I have a 30 watt one and it's decent, no frills and sounds good. It was only $120 new, so you should be able to find a used one for $100. |

Location: DFW, TX | Thanks, I'll look at those Fender Acoustasonics and the Epiphone Regent.
Maybe there are some good little gems in some of the local pawn shops.. |

Location: Calgary,Alberta | I have had great success with crate acoustic amps, the CA15 cimarron. Maybe a little more than want you want to spend, but a great amp. I have seen them on sale for around $110-$120, but the regular price is $150. Many good amps in that price range($150). |

| In your price range, a Fender Acoustasonic or Crate CA15 (both on sale) would fit the bill. |
