Default Practice guitar amp for Taylor 214ce

I need a practice guitar amp to go with my Taylor 214ce. The room I typically practice in is 10x12, but I’d like to occasionally take it to go. Would ideally like to keep it under $300. What do you recommend?

I have a small Fishman Loud Box Mini acoustic amp as well as a Fender acoustisonic acoustic amp. Both I think would work for your Taylor and ironically enough, I tried a Taylor through my Loud Box mini when I got it last fall and it sounded fantastic through it.

Can’t go wrong with the Boss Kantana MK2 50 https://www.sweetwater.com/store/det...E&gclsrc=aw.ds

I'm a fan of the Roland Cube Street, so that's what I'd recommend given the limit on price.

Small, loud, true stereo verbs and chorus, separate mic channel, can be used as a small PA, and operates for hours on a set of AA batteries if you don't want to plug it in.

I second the loud box mini. It’s a great sounding little amp, but has enough punch for a small gig.

There's a Yamaha THR5A amp for sale on AGF. Incredible compact amps with battery capabilities. I use a computer battery with mine.

I use a Roland Cube. $164 and it works on AC or the internal rechargeable battery. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/det...ombo-amp-black
