That sounds good doing the live thing. Tele's are so cool too!

I've never played it live, or even taken it out of the house. I've only played guitar live, twice. The first time was with this First Act Tele copy that I found at a TJ Maxx for $37, that I couldn't pass up, because it was dirt cheap, and looked cool, but also wound up having a really nice neck on it, and didn't sound too bad, and the second time was with a borrowed Danelectro U2 model. You know, those single cut models, not the one that Jimmy Page had. This will be the first time I've even used this guitar for that purpose, but I did use it to record some demo stuff on a 4-track a few years back.

Paul - I understand your reluctance to bring your mint 1982 Fender Super Champ to a live performance. No matter how careful you are, something can always happen that's out of your control.

Maybe you could rent an amp for the night from a local music shop.

Not a bad idea, as long as it doesn't bite into your pay for the gig too much. Just for laughs, run through the Rumble 350.

If I don't wind up using the Super Champ, I'm sure I'll come up with something. I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Happy hunting on that one.

Well, I was talking with my girlfriend about the amp situation, and we definitely aren't going to be using the Super Champ to gig with, since it's too risky, considering the condition and potential value of it. I guess we'll figure out what to do later, when the time comes.

Luckily guitar amps don't need that extra power bass amps do, and the options are pretty ample. :mrgreen:

That's true, and generally not as expensive because of it. Although, now with all of the Class D stuff and imports you can get a decent powered bass amp pretty cheap, and there's always used stuff. The problem with that is you run the risk of buying someone else's problems.

Like you say though, new Class D can be pretty cheap. That can be an issue with some used amps.

I'll have to look around and see what's out there.

Have you found any suitable replacement to use.

That's true. Then again, for all I know, I might just wind up playing guitar through the bass amp. :P
