The last couple of times I’ve played my archtop Cort guitar at one of these Turtle Bay jazz gigs, I’ve been really displeased with the sound I got plugged into my Reverend Hellhound amp. So this time I figured I would try the Lunchbox amp, which I’ve written about earlier. I was pleased to find that it sounded great and had just the right combination of warmth and clarity.

I’ve used this a few times now at some rehearsals for SNUG and while sitting in at Saloon in San Francisco with the Dave Workman Band and it’s amazing how much sound this little demon puts out there. Finally, a truly portable amp that’s suitable for more than just practice. Love this thing!
