Then I'd run you through some options that look good but are chances, not promised good.

Here's the first:

https://www.amazon.com/Sunburst-Gear...te+acoustics+a

It looks good, has 48v phantom and is built by a company that produces well reviewed, professional product. It has no reverb and I didn't look to see if it has an FX loop. Its the right price though.

Here's a second option:

Again no reverb but its way better than a Micro cube. This I've heard and its reasonable. Closer to the AC33, with better bass than the AC33 and its $99.

Here's another option:

With this:

And something like this:

For plugging in this:

Or better, this:

Fourth option:

Same battery system as above and buy a used Bugera AC60 for $169 or so. Would come in at $350 and run for around 2.5 hours on battery.

Remember that the AC33 is a $400 amp.

So, if I go down the Ibanez or bugera route, I would need the inverter, the motorcycle charger and would I need a separate battery? Would any car or motorcycle battery do? I'm assuming the motorcycle charger is for the battery. If I go this route, would I need something to place the battery on? I thought I had heard before you can't just put a car battery directly on the ground.
