logo-QuilterGuitarAmplifiersPeriodically I feature a particular amplifier manufacture that offers an exception amp. This is the line of amps that our Funky Frets store will carry in the spring and my personal choice for my jazz, rock and ukulele gigs. A combination of their MicroPro 200 Full-Range 8" and various extensions cabinets cover that a wide range of music styles.

AER Compact 60 60W 1x8 Acoustic Guitar Combo Amp

( amp information from Shoreline Music )

Compact 60 - The AER Compact 60 is indeed compact. At approximately 1 cubic foot and less than 20 lbs, this amp defines portable tone. It's a two channel amp with 60 watts of headroom, but it's a solid 60 watts: Enough to cover a small room easily—and possibly even larger—without giving up at higher volumes. In fact, while most folks here in the shop are won over immediately by the tone of the amp, it's the Compact 60's ability to crank it up that makes their jaws drop. I have spent many hours onstage with this amp, and I've come to the conclusion that it may very well be the perfect acoustic amp. It features onboard digital effects (footswitchable), plus the standard tuner send, headphone jack, and line and DI outs. The Compact 60 ships with a padded AER amp cover/gigbag, and that gigbag is almost as cool as the amp—when walking into a gig or a Sunday worship set, I have my guitar in one hand, and the amp slung over my shoulder. The farther away I've had to park, the happier I am that the amp is only 19 lbs and that I don't have to make a second trip back to the car to get more gear. 13 x 10 x 9. 19 lbs.

I've used the original Clarus 1 as my main amp with a bevy of Reazer's Edge cabinets (Stealth 12, 6/8, NY8) and a Wes Montgomery L5, a Benedetto Benny guitars. Now using the a Clarus Series II Clarus 2R with the 7 string and it sounds great.

( from listing's site ) - Time-tested circuits and audiophile-grade components: George Alessandro has applied these proven concepts of "high-end" to the guitar market. However, in the world of guitar amplification, what we look for is not necessarily higher fidelity, but rather, the concept of higher performance. "I believe in making a high quality, high performance product rather than a price-based, mass-production thing," is how Alessandro puts it.
