    I just made that decision. Went for the standard 40 as I have no need for the modeling or the doubling of the price. Very happy with it.

    Been away awhile, mostly playing out and practicing with two Folky/Americana type bands (here in gringolandia of San Miguel de Allende, GTO, Mex). I needed to get something lighter than my Rumble200cV3. Hauling it up and down our cobble streets carrying a backpack of cables, stands, tablets, and...

    Nope. This is me in January with all my stuff. The R40 should be a big improvement.

Smelling a telltale odor, I used a black light and confirmed one had christened my R200c. Got the screen and onto the cone itself. Fortunately I was able to tackle it early and there are...

    I remember my first lesson on Too Loud working the minimal sound board at a bar in Telluride back in ‘74 or so. The band Amos Otis, kept cranking the volume. Bar owner finally came over at break the first night and said we had to turn down because people (paying and drinking people) were leaving...

    My only Joyo experience is the little 10 watt 5” speaker Bass amp. I use it when going camping so I can play with the acoustic guitars using my solid body bass. No room in the Airstream for the R200c….
