I am considering taking the leap to a Fishman Aura after some internet research and comparison with alternatives.

As I have several guitars I use for gigs, the model that that seems to fit my needs and is currently offered is the Fishman Aura Spectrum DI for about $330. Alternatively, the original discontinued model, the Fishman Aura Acoustic Imaging Blender consistently appears on e-bay for significantly less.

I'd be interested in the impressions of those who might have experience with either or both of these units.

Thanks.

I've got the big one and like it.
I also have two of the little ones that are basically a volume and tone control, one for a dreadnaught and one for a concert sized guitar.
I use them with my Collings that have Fishman pickups sometimes.

I bought the Big One a few years ago. It's pristine with box and power supply. I quickly realized that the imaging technology is not for me. I'd be glad to sell it for 200.

There was one on e-bay for just that amount that I let expire. No bids.

As the referees say, "Upon further review . . . " I'm going to put this on hold for a while. I'm not sure this is a solution to a problem I'm not entirely sure I have.

Thank you all for the responses.

I got the Korg Pandora PX4A, which has a lot of nice effects and would be good for gigs

Well, anyone else wants it (my original, like-new Arua) let me know. I'm flexible and like trades.
