    Mid-priced AEB!

    I have the EWB205WNENT and absolutely love it. The stock strings were bad to me so I went with Elixirs... WOW what a difference. Mine is the 5 string version and they run around 5 to 600. I got mine for a steal at my local shop for $350 used... nothing wrong with it at all :)

    "In-ears" or wedges?

    I agree that you need the good ear "bud" or custom monitors... I just don't have the cash to get them for me just to play at church 2 or 3 times a month... I now have an amp on stage.... it is a beast.... definitely overkill now but I keep the volume down so you can't hear it FOH at all. The...

    No amp onstage? Really?

    Faith in sound guy and a REALLY good in ear system. We have avions at our church and I just have regular ear buds and it was horrible... only ones that like it are the singers. the worship leader however has custom made in ear monitors and swears by them... of course he paid $300 for them...
