Re: [Harp-L] Good cheap small amp

["Paul LaBrier" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recently purchased a Pignose Hog-20 and overall I am very pleased
with it.  For an inexpensive Solid State amp it sounds pretty good.
It has more volume than I need for a practice amp.  It is powered by
lead acid batteries so it is a great amp for taking along camping or
for busking.  I use a Bottle-O-Blues mic and have a Danelectro Corned
Beef reverb unit that I use with it.

My one complaint is that while it has two 1/4" inputs (one on front
and one on back), they are both on the same channel and cannot be used
at the same time.   I e-mailed Pignose support and was told that there
was two inputs in case one ever went bad.  Sort of a lame excuse.  I
was hoping to use one for an aux input to play jam tracks for
practicing.  Oh-well, for the price and features of the amp I cannot
complain too much.
