We're going to play some small venues, up to about 200 people max. I'm going to need a bit of a better amp I'm afraid. I now have a Vox AD50VT. My questions: Would such a vox be loud enough to play live with a band? Say in bars and maybe a bit bigger venues? What other cool alternatives would you give me? I have a few things I want in a possible new amp: preferably tube Loud enough FX Loop! (important with delay and reverb FX) switchable well priced, I can't spend 600 euros, I just don't have that amount of money. let me know! Sean Edit: typo...

I think your amp is probably loud enough, because when you need to be loud enough for that many people - it should be mic'd anyway so if you are happy with the sound - just mic it You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

If not, then whether or not its loud enough depends on the type of music you play, and if you play with another guitarist. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

That amp is powerful enough and has very decent sound, I've heard it several times on stage and always though it sounded very good. Try it on stage, and see how it behaves. You can then decide yourself. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.
