AER "Alpha Plus" Acoustic Instrument Amplifier (50 Watt)

This is what Seb Goldswain says (Australian, singer/songwriter)...
My AER Alpha plus and my Pocket Tools Dual Mix 2, are as integral to my live rig as any guitar I use. Whether it's on large festival stages or in small clubs, sound engineers are always impressed with the AER sound. I plug in and feel inspired to give my audience everything I've got. I cannot imagine doing a show without my AER!
