Could I please get some reccomendation on what type of amp, (Watts, Speaker size and so on) would be best suited for someone in the fourth month of trying to tame this beast.
I currently have a Crate gfx 30, with all the little dials and such, but the steel has so much better sound thru my wife's traynor bass amp.
Maybe I just don't know the proper dial in for it. If some one could help I would be most grateful.

For the price these days of a used Nashville 400 it seems like a natural choice. It will sound great and it will be there for you when you are ready to play with other people. I just can't think of anything for less $$ that will, guaranteed, give you what you need for steel. (Maybe there are some good practice amp choices but with the Nash you KNOW it will right for steel. And now that you see/hear the diff between the sound coming back at you from your wife's amp vs. the Crate, you can appreciate how much different it feels when you have good sound coming out of your axe vs. a jinky sound.) |
