ricknbokker Posted February 1, 2002 Share Posted February 1, 2002 As a favor to a friend, I'm playing a session tonight playing acoustic with a rather loud blues/rock band. My choices are to run through a Fender Twin, or my borrowed, trusty, Kalamazoo 112 Reverb. I'll be running through my equally trusty Zoom unit... the original one. The Kalamazoo, while very quaint and good sounding at average levels, is probobly under-powered for this situation. So... has anyone out there ever used a Twin with an acoustic? Will it work? Or should I bring the 4003 and trade off with the bassist, just in case? Let me know, if you can. The gig is in six hours...

KHAN Posted February 1, 2002 Share Posted February 1, 2002 You really should have something full range (Speaker and horn) for acoustic. Would it be possible to use a D.I. into the board and get a wedge monitor. Then bring it through the mains. Or, you could D.I. it to the mains, and use the Twin just for stage volume.

ricknbokker Posted February 1, 2002 Author Share Posted February 1, 2002 All I've been told says I can't go through the board. It was my first choice, really. That's usually how I run it. Thanks anyways, Noon. May I call you Noon?! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricknbokker Posted February 2, 2002 Author Share Posted February 2, 2002 Times a wastin'. Looks like the Twin wins the race. Gonna try to get in the board, first. Long as they don't get too uppity w/me! Gonna miss that Kalamazoo... Steve (packing duct tape as I post...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricknbokker Posted February 3, 2002 Author Share Posted February 3, 2002 What a mess! I ended up having to run through a Marshall combo. Word to the wise... never do this! I turned down a low as possible, as I ended up doing all of the lead vox. Thank God for small favors... Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
