a PA system.. and a sans amp (the sans will run like 150-200 i think)..... the sans amp is like super acoustic amplifcation pedal (reynolds uses one and i think dave did too on the D+T tour)...

as for an amp ... stick with either the fender blonde, or... this one (which my acoustic friends live and die by): SWR Strawberry blonde

no no no, look NO FURTHER than Ultrasound amps. NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING can even begin to touch them for tone reproduction and transparency for the price. In fact, few, IF ANY amps can touch them PERIOD! check them out at http://samusic.com/amplification/ultrasound.shtml those are the best deals you'll find. shipping is free. Don't bother with anything else.

from that site above, you could get an AG-30, and an AG-30p for a SWEET stereo setup that would cost you exactly $328 from the site I listed above, with shipping included. I would first email the guys (their customer service is AMAZING) asking if it's possible to set up a stereo system with the two, just to make sure. I don't see why it wouldn't be though. That would be my reccomendation. I'm serious about not even bothering with anything else. Just look at a few reviews of the ultrasound amps and you'll know what I mean. Play through one and you'll be flabergasted. Same goes for you Xoosh, check them out. Sounds that easily rival if not do better than the SWR stuff (and kick Fender's acoustic butts) for far less. And that goes for everyone, save your money and buy Ultrasound if you want a good acoustic amp. And check out that http://www.samusic.com for the best deals on the planet.

That's what I'm getting. Dedicated mic jack, too. Built in chorus and reverb, too.

Pilot, might I suggest that you look at the ag50ds2?? Sure, it will cost you a bit more, but you get better power, better effects, a second channel whith xlr input, and whole worlds of better sound. and you won't pay any shipping from the http://www.samusic.com site. When you throw in shipping on top of that price, you're only paying $100 more, and it's totally worth your money.
