Getting the right amplifier can make a significant difference in live sound. It’s not just about quality, although that’s obviously your primary concern. Clarity is crucial, and you want something that won’t fail halfway through a solo. Additionally, the overall tone of the amplifier should complement the music you play.

While it may seem appealing to be able to blast the audience’s eardrums, it is of no use if the sound quality from the amp is poor.

When making a purchase, consider the sound effects provided by the amplifier. It may have multiple channels, sound effects, and control knobs. Some people prefer to maintain an authentic sound, while others focus on reverb effects.
