I started a thread several months ago about live performance. This is something I haven't really done. I'm a classical guitarist and my needs are minor. I will be doing mainly weddings and other smaller venues.
I have a Crate amp (the acoustic model) but there is no reverb. I'm currently using a Shure PG81 mic with it. Bearing mind that a classical guitar, mine at least is very loud for an acoustic but at times still needs a little help.
My question is this: I want to warm things up a little. Even the acoustic amp can sound a little harsh at times. I can either buy a new mic (I will probably do this regardless), a reverb unit, a tube or other warmer pre-amp, an effects processor or some combination of the above.
Obviously, the fewer components, the better. Can anyone suggest a direction to go in? I know some allowance must be made for different venues but I'm unsure where to start.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Steve
