Vintage v400mh mahogany topped dreadnought acoustic FS - £100
Done wanna spam!
But, check out the Blackstar site. Thursday the vid is about low power amps.
Dave.
Now with my secong child, im doing it again.
I have a little Vox Mini 3 in Ivory finish, that can be used with headphones or played through its 5" speaker, and can take a mic too. . The new Mini3G2 is even better. It's tiny, weighs virtually nothing, but really is surprisingly good, and plenty loud enough to jam with friends! Around £90. Check out the video below:

I just plug in my guitar and headphones and i'm set. It really is a good unit...the dirt pedals are not great but through headphones it doesn't really matter...but delay, verb and mods are awesome
