    Hi all, Iv been playing acoustic guitar now about 4 years, i was planing on doing a pub gig soon and was wondering what equitment i would need. I have an acoustic amp 60w, a cheap mic i can run through the amp. Do i need speekers and a PA system?, or anything else. Thanks for your time.

    Realistically you'll need a PA (amp and speakers) and two dynamic mics. If the pub hosts live music regularly, they'll probably have this stuff. If not, it'll be a costly night.

    If it's just a once off thing, and the pub don't have PA, you will need to hire one. If it is very small and if there will not be many people there you might get away with your amp on it's own, but if you're planning to do more gigs, you should get your own PA.
    You can get budget PAs for what you want to do that are inexpensive. Get yourself a pair of active full range speakers and a desk with enough inputs, and 58, and your good to go!

    Mature. There's only one 'T' in 'equipment'. Pedantic post of the week perhaps, but doesn't make it any less true.

    Mature? Like busting some guys balls because he spells a word wrong? GTFO.

    Oh, and by the way, the 'rolleyes' thing? Just makes you look like more of a dick.

    Attack the post not the poster lads...getting personal isn't on, and will get you banned on most forums on boards. There's no need for it.

    What the hell has happened to the quality of the MP regulars? Get a grip lads.

    thread locked. Have your playground spats elsewhere.
