Re: OT: Small/Light Acoustic Guitar Amps

["Krispen Hartung" <khartung@cableone.net>]

The motion sound looks really interesting. I have similar requirements as 
you, but what I am really finding annoying now is the amps that have built 
in effects. None of them have the combination that I need...I see Reverb 
with Chorus, Reverb only, Chorus only, etc, etc...but what I really want 
is 
Reverb and Delay, and level for each. The Roland AC-60 doesn't even have 
this...the Ultrasound gets closer, but still not there. I'd rather not  
have 
to buy an effects processor acoustic guitar jazz setup...I prefer to just 
plug in and get what I want.
