I ordered a Crate TX50 DB amp three months ago but cancelled my order today. Tired of waiting and the national distributor informed me they had no way of knowing how long it might take.

So, Roland Cube Street is on the agenda. Object is busking with my guitar partner. Anyone used both guitar and harp at the same time through one of these babies? I am a big picture kind of guy, and will be happy if it gets the job done; don't care if there is a limited number of knobs. Any issues I should be aware of?

Hey Ray! That's the kind of feedback that's welcome to my ears. I might message you on Facie. Cheers!

Edited to add: Will check out the sound at my local shop first of course...

I haven't used the TX50--or a Cube--but I've been drooling for one for a while now--let me know how it is if you get a chance.

I have used a Behringer 8-track mixer with several different amps--the mixer will work on 3 9-volt snap-top batteries--but it eats them like a cheap date--so I use a rechargeable power source with whatever amp I have at the time.

Anyway--to actually answer your question a little--with the mixer I can put harp, vocal (2), a guitar, and some electric foot drums--all through the same amp. I isn't the holy of holies setup--but it can get loud enough for the street and sounds decent through all the amps I've tried so far. . .

Thanks OW. We have been using the TX50 for busking. Works very well when it works, which is why I wanted to git one. I will let you know how I go, but I am very much a noob in the amp game.

Cheers
