I mentioned it before in passing but here’s why the double four is the move.
- It’s tiny, you can pick it up w one finger making it ideal for home play because you can put it anywhere...toss it on a desk or a table
- for $100 you can get a rechargeable laptop power brick that fits in the handle of the double four to power it making it truly portable and the battery lasts a while and has digital feedback to let you know when it is running low
- has a headphone out w dedicated volume and an aux in with dedicated volume if you wanna be silent...and again small enough to put it anywhere especially if you go w portable power option
- used prices are in the mid to upper $300’s so not horrible especially compared to other options
- that Phil Jones sound (if you are into it - I am. I have a briefcase and BigHead)
I really love mine. I buy a lot of non sensical gear and I will say the Phil Jones Double Four was one of my best purchases because it is used so much. It makes playing easier and that’s what I am about. When I get the urge to play I sometimes only have 10 mins so setup has to be simple and the Double Four is that. I just plug the cable into the power source that is tucked into the handle and bam I am ready to go. I can set up anywhere in the house or beyond. I got it during the pandemic to be able to have change of scenery during lockdowns and use it constantly.
