Or you can get a power inverter ($60 -$80) and a motorcycle battery ($12)and use any amp you want. A power inverter converts 12 volts DC to 110 volts AC' Gary On 2014-08-07 13:47, Tobiah wrote: I have this guy: http://www.crateamps.com/products/pindex.php?prodID=25 It has one of those

So I have the Hog 30, which is very clean with good bass, though nowhere near as loud as a cranked 30 watt tube amp. I have a Sennheiser 441 mic (which is kind of expensive these days) on a nice boom stand which can be adjusted to be about 2.5 feet high, with a cable and a low to high impedance
