AER Compact 60 w/ Electric Guitar?!!!
Just wondering if anyone who owns a Compact has gotten decent results using it with an electric guitar... in my case, it's basically a Gibson 335, although I would use my ES-175 or Taylor T-5 as well, if I found settings that worked for me.
I heard a fellow playing a fat-bodied jazz box with his Compact and it sounded good for traditional, straight-ahead jazz tunes, but I did not get a chance to look at how he had the tone controls tweaked to get the sound he did. Knowing how many folks here like to mess around and try different things, I thought I'd try here for some information! Thanks ahead of time for anything you can give to me about this... John

I heard Laurence Juber a week or two ago with an electric/acoustic show. He was rocking out on a 335 most of the night, using a Compact 60. He was running this ahead of it, and it sounded quite good:

Thanks, Doug... I realize that I can certainly turn the knobs for myself, just wanted to find out if anyone had discovered any tricks with the AER and electric guitars...
That little SansAmp pedal looks pretty cool...

I'd be interested to know if an electric guitar could do any damage to an acoustic amp, like an aer?
I used to play my strat through my Marshall as50r and The amp eventually started cutting out, I'm not sure what caused it but my mind often blamed using the strat I actually really like the tone you get from an electric guitar through an acoustic amp |

I had a compact 60 and sold it to get a Quilter Micro pro with the 8inch speaker. it's about the same size and I think does electric guitar way way better than the compact 60.
