 Hi Thomas

Have you tried to amplify? I bought a really nice
inexpensive "Crate" amp to play with large vocal +
instrumental groups. I also use it to play outside and
for large social gatherings. Get a nice mic and away
you go - not all that authentic - but it works
I might add that I never amplify in small chamber
groups or while playing solo recitals.
