    I'm a 16-year-old singer songwriter living in London. I get inspiration from traveling, exploring and discovering new places and I'll vlog about everything from busking on street corners, recording new music and my travels here.

    That's actually a great setup! Especially using the Pickup on a non electric acoustic. I'm 17 and have been Busking in the U.S for about 5 years now, I might be considering to switch over some of my gear to this stuff. And especially that Amp and pickup setup.

    Man you're so lucky to have parents who don't object to your interests, busking in particular. I'm the same age as you and whenever I mention something in front of my parents about wanting to busk they always say "no you should focus on your a-levels"

    I'm hoping to go busking for the first time next week, this is pretty much exactly the same kinda set up i have. The battery powered Roland is a god send! such a great little amp and with rechargeable batteries its just so convenient.

    Hey! Nice video. Just a few questions. When you busk, do you have a set of songs that you know really well, and you play those when you go out to busk, or do you learn how to play different songs every time? Awesome video, and good wishes form Australia!

  • @babbalouie3074

    Would suggest considering (depending on your budget, and dedication) an AER compact mobile for your PA. After many years playing music on the street have found it produces the best tone of any other battery powered PA I have heard or owned. Works great for regular club gigs as well. Peace

    @StephenMendes 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Tim..... I admire you...... I subscribed..... and I have a Cube Street just like yours but in my review I did not say pleasant things about it...... I do have a question for you.... do you use rechargeable batteries in your Cube Street ?? ..... I find that the slightly lower voltage of the NiMh rechargeable batteries causes distortion when the volume is turned up (does not happen with new alkaline batteries or when running on the power adapter) ..... my outdoor rig is a Fender KXR60 running on an inverter from my vehicle cigarette lighter and it's not 'portable'..... I could not walk around with it the way you travel with your stuff..... but I am doing drums, bass, keyboard and vocals..... I was really disappointed with Cube Street although it may be cool for just guitar and vocals depending on the noise level around you.

    Hey Tim, it's great to see a teenager this talented! very inspiring. (even thou I am 27 haha) Is there a reason you didn't get the GS mini e, instead of your GS mini ?
    Second question : is your top rosewood? standard? mahogany?
    Asking all this because I am hesitating between some travel guitars, aspecially this GS Mini and a Martin Dreadnought Junior.
    Keep up the good work !

    • @racheltattersall337
      @racheltattersall337 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      An electric guitar plugs in. You need to try out different amps to find one that suits your guitar. If you have single coil pickups like in most Fenders than you can get a look of hum. If you have a Gibson style guitar or one with humbuckers you’re less likely to get this. Basically, take your guitar into a music shop and try it out with different amps before you buy one.

I know nothing about this things so if someone could tell me the specifics that the battery has to have, he would make me a big favour.
