Location: Tychy, Poland | i got the best sound from AER Compact 60,
40W version isn't that good as "bigger brother" but it's still worth to look at.
AER 60 beats Roland AC60 very easily.
if you look for something REALLY cheap, Kustom Sienna 30/35 might be right choice. It's not transparent to guitar sound (it's adding a little bit of "rock harshness"), but my Legend sounded nice on 35, and it costs only about $220 |

The Fishman Acoustic Performer Pro can still be found out there on the used market.
The ones I have found usually came with the carry-case.
Another great buy on the used market lately has been the Trace Acoustic TA100 Concert. The one we scored for Dan had pop-out casters and a top handle installed. It also had a Tuki cover. The original owner would wheel it along using one hand and carry his guitar in the other. They are heavy, but if you want a great used amp, you cannot go wrong. It even does clean electric.

Location: Alagoas, Brazil | I have a Marshall AS100D. It´s a bit on the heavy side, but we did a gig for Xmas and it handled my Ovation, an electric (SG) guitar (through a Boss GT10 processor) and the mic for vocals. The only other amplifier in the gig was the bassist´s. Very handy, indeed. |

| The first free channel on the mixer. All the watts you'll need for the gig. |
