"gig bag is also a guitar stand"

Feature: Don't forget, the gig bag doubles as a guitar stand during gigs, just put your guitar into the open bag and it will hold it upright. Amazing convenience and a lot of people don't realize it's designed for that. Just another small thing that no one else does. I've played my Modulus 18 volt preamp 5 string bass through this thing, and even used it as a practice amp with the whole band and everyone was amazed, even with the low B volume. It worked fine for my next solo guitar gig. Amazing gear! Manufacturer Support: i once needed a replacement part that screws into the bottom to mount it on a pole, and I called the company to ask for one and they mailed it to me free even knowing I bought it used. Amazing. The Wow Factor: your friends may laugh, until they hear it...

Style of Music: country rock/folk rock/ambient

Sound: I absolutely love the sound of the AER Compact 60 amp. I play mostly acoustic fingerstyle. The AER provides such a clean acoustic sound, I now practice with the guitar plugged into the AER so I can hear how well each note is articulated...FABULOUS!!!! Ease of Use: Had it working right out of the box and have been experimenting with the different settings. Very easy to use... Quality: The amp has a solid look and feel and also comes with a very nice padded 'gig bag' ... Value: The amp was not as cheap as others, but the quality is very high and worth the premium... Manufacturer Support: Have not needed support yet... The Wow Factor: The appeal for me is the small footprint design that packs a powerpunch sound.... Overall: I imagine this product will meet my needs for a long time. I do not currently perform often, but it is something I would like to do more of in the future. I bought this amp to begin learning how to work in the world of mic, amps and recorders...So far, I am very impressed with the quality of the product and it's ease of use...
