First class review. Thank you.

Excellent review!

Thank you, that was very helpful.

If you use the effect send and returns on the rear panel does it bypass the internal effects or do they get combined?

I've looked at several acoustic amps, namely Fender Acoustasonic, Genz-Benz, Marshal ASD-50,100 and now Fishman Loudbox Artist which I have yet to play through. Which one is your reccomended amp. I have a Takamine G series 12 string acoustic/electric and a Martin D-16 a/e. Now I mostly play at church and home. I have several electrics also which I run thru a Fender Amp.

Can you plug a mircophone into this?

Why is the amp miked? I'm not convinced that I'm hearing the guitar through the amp, or the guitar thru the amp thru a mixed soundboard PA system. can you just demo the amp by itself? or is the amp not able to push the sound out. Meaning do I get this amp, then have to mike the amp thru an amp in order to hear it.!
