Does anyone have a Acoustic 30 watt Guitar Amplifier with the Microphone plug in (3 prong) that you don't have any use for? Send me a PM. I can't pay very much for it.

You didn't say if you want valve or solid state or your needs. Awhile back I bought a Fender Acoustiasonic 90, two channel. They come 15,30, 40,90, and 150 watts. I play fiddle, mandolin and ukulele through the mike channel. My main needs are reasonable sound, Light Weight, and Portability. I play on my veranda and at jams, light weight and convenience is a big deal for me. I also play magnetic pickups through the little devil and I'm happy enough with it.

http://www.fender.com.au/fender-guitar-amplifiers.cfm?series&seID=62 These are Aussie prices but in reality they are much cheaper. The factory is in Indonesia and I think it is the victim of black market factory over runs. Mine was new $150 AD in a pawn shop. It still had the swing tags, was in pristine condition, and with the package guitar lead, all unused.

I have an Acoustic Electric Guitar, and my only purpose would be to use here at home. I'm too old to think about going out someplace to play. It's just for my own enjoyment. I wouldn't want any less than a 30 watt Amp, and the 3 prong mike plug. I never thought about a pond shop.

Your guitar will also sound very nice through the mike channel with a Shure SM58.

While we're talking about this sort of stuff. After trying many of the piezo systems for guitar pickups, I'm now using a Seymour Duncan Acoustic Tube sound hole pickup. It's a hum cancelling magnetic pickup, designed for phosphor bronze strings and acoustic amps. It can be shifted to another guitar in a minute or two with no holes or damage to the instrument. The lead has to be externally taped to the body or it can be more permanently fitted, with the lead inside the body and a new endpin jack. I it movable and don't mine taping everything down. Duncan has a new sound hole magnetic acoustic pickup with microphone, I haven't tried that one.

Check the local garage and estate sales, I've bought a couple small amps for ten to fifteen dollars. Even got a 65 watt Peavey 112 for $65.

Kenny I hope you meant "PAWN" shop? I'd bet an amp out of a "pond" shop might not work all that good or for very long.

Ya never know you might have a new fad-

I thought about that. I haven't done anything yet.
