i have just bought a new guitar (J. Reynolds JR-6) for $125 and still have
the option of getting a package for 135 more. i was wondering if this
package would be a good deal or to just buy amps, etc. seperate. |

it is impossible to give you the opinion you want when the main part of the
package, the amp, is something you can tell us nothing about. "I'm buying
a car for $500. Am I getting a good deal?"
Having seen how you got rooked on the guitar however, I would say it's safe
to say that you won't get a good amp for the price.
thanks,

This package sounds a bit dubious, shouldn't the "whammy bar" have come
with the guitar?
Are you sure it's not a guitar and amp package? ____________________ Technology, not technique

the amp is an rms, and the whammy bar did come with it--i was offered the
package after buying the guitar, and i was going to think about it

g4l,
If you're just looking to get started and make some noise, I would go ahead
and do it, but if you're really into it, I would plonk down just a
couple of more bucks for a little larger amp. After a very short period of
time, you'll have outgrown the RMS practice amp, and it will cause you to
lose interest.
A Gorilla
practice amp will be more than enough, and it's plenty loud for playing
along. I used one for a long time when I first got into guitar. This
would leave you 85 smackeroos to get the rest of the gear you wanted.
I also would suggest(for a little more money) a Marshall Mini-Stack(15
watts). I still have mine, and it was a great amp to play with.
thanks,

thanks schwim.....right now i am just trying to get something to add a
little sound to the guitar, and maybe in a few months when i get a little
better i will take up your suggestion and get a gorrilla amp--i have a
12watt now, so i might go up to the gorilla 20 w later.
thanks,
