Something like the Grace Felix with a reverb section and at a cost of sub $400 doesn't seem to exist. The box I keep coming back to is the Qsc touxhmix 8. Costs more than any of my amps though and runs at 19v (if I remember correctly). Maybe a tonedextet with a vocal channel and reverbs will come out in the future.
I was eyeing that Grace Felix but at 1K I'll be eyeing it only. I'm just getting into plugging in with acoustic so if any spare thousands come along, I'd still be inclined to spend that on guitars and not gear. That being said, since I started plugging in I find myself waiting for my wife to go out so I can crank up a bit. It's a different vibe than playing unplugged. It certainly emphasizes my deficiencies in technique so makes me try to play a bit cleaner. I figure if I am going to start playing out solo fingerstyle, my technique better be solid.
