    I just bought a brand new “Gretsch Guitars G2627T Streamliner Center Block 3-pickup "Cateye"” after having the same Fender Squire Electric Mini for over ten years. We had a bunch of issues with shipping so I’m still waiting very patiently for it to come in the mail and because it’s semi-hollow I was looking at portable amps so I can walk around playing and bother my family hahaha. I wasn’t too sure about this one looking at it on the website but this video is so awesome- very concise, and you talk straight information. Great video!

    I have the 57 Fender Mini twin that i modified the headphone jack to be a line out for a cab. You just cut two traces, one trace cut is for one sound channel and the other trace is for a resistor or diode i forget (i used a switch(DPDT) so i could still use it with headphones). it is surprisingly loud and full sounding plugged in to a 1X12 . oh and The handle is real on the 57 mini twin.

    I need anyone’s help here. I brought my first guitar and its a cheap one and I also Got the fender mini twin as my first amp. Anyway when I try playing different solos in different songs i feel like I can’t get the adjustments of the sound of the songs right. Is the problem here from the amp or from the guitar? To sum up do i need to invest on a expensive amp to have different sounds so i can adjust to a certain sound of a song that i want to cover or not?

    • @gearfacts
