Re: battery amp

["Hambone Hamilton" <harpmanx@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Portablues are incredible sounding amps, but they do cost a lot.  Around 
$600....not they're not worth it, but that's out of your range from the way 
it sounds.

Since nobody's mentioned it, there are the good ol' Pignose amps.  The Hog 
20 is just over $100, and has  a rechargeable battery.  Not bad sounding, 
but sounds like it's stuck on overdrive all the time.  I HIGHLY recommend if 
you go with that one, not to use a green bullet, but something like a Shaker 
dynamic that's a lot more feedback resistant.  You'll enjoy it much more 
with one of those.
