"Hey Jason, I've got a Genz Benz Shenandoah 100 which I love - 1X12" with a tweeter, it has 2 channels each with multi inputs for either 1/4" or mic input, eq, gain and FX. The effects sound amazing on this amp, really good.…"

"The MMV is a high gloss body front and rear, with a matte finished mahogany neck"
"Hey Craig: I can't speak to the differences, but I have the actual GC MMV Specifications in PDF form. PM me if you'd like a copy emailed. Good luck...now I'm going back to playing (mine) :-P"

FloridaGull replied to JasonEDH's discussion Amplifying my MMV in the group Martin Owners"Hey Jason!
A good acoustic amp should amplify your sound (with your K&K-and without a preamp) quite well, as your amp will have a "pre-amp" of sorts in it as well. I love my Roland AC-90 - Roland makes an AC-60 and an AC-30 as…"
Acoustic Pickers replied to JasonEDH's discussion Amplifying my MMV in the group Martin Owners"Hey Jason, the K&K should sound fine at home through a decent amp without a preamp.
It's not like you're playing Madison Square Garden yet. LOL.
Check out K&K info online. Good luck. Eric"
"Thx E. does your guitar have built in pre-amp? I'm a total newb with this stuff, and have been trying to find a site that can explain what the proper, good set up is for amplification. I hear my guitar through my AT108 and it sounds metallic…"
Acoustic Pickers replied to JasonEDH's discussion Amplifying my MMV in the group Martin Owners"For acoustic amplification at home and intimate venues I really enjoy the Ultrasound AG30. Faithfully reproduces clear acoustic sound. These list new for less than $200, but I purchased mine used off of eBay for less.
Check out what it…"
Amplifying my MMV
Hi folks: I'm a relatively new player (3 years, I play every day). I recently purchased an MMV and had a K&K installed...now what? :) I have a little 15W Beringher AT108 acoustic amp but the sound quality is sub par in my opinion. Can someone suggest a good amplified solution, without breaking the bank? I want a natural crisp sound doesn't have to be booming loud. I.e. is a pre-amp required for a more natural sound? Do I need a better AMP? If so, how much can I expect to spend?
"Craig: I bought an MMV over the holidays and I gotta say, the guitar is amazing. The lows, mids, sustain. The lows rumble...RUMBLE!!! Growl. Since youve played it you know what I mean. I have my SWS on CL but I'm in no hurry to sell. So…"
"My pastime...soccer. I played for most of my early adult life (NCAA Div 1, professionally) and now relive my youth through my kids. I'm actively involved in our communities soccer club, and stopped playing at an early enough age so I can still…"
"Hey Craig:
I can't stop playing mine. I thought about throwing down on a D28 (my GC return policy is through Jan 2013)...but every time I pick it up and play it...WOW! And then I think about the price difference and whether my playing would…"
"I am keeping it, but just wondering if they should have disclosed that it was NOS, and/or discounted it further"
"So...should I feel duped???
I was curious as to when my MMV was manufactured so I looked it up online, and the site referenced as being manufactured in.....2006??????!!!!
I mean, I can see maybe 2011, and maaaaaybe even 2010, but 2006???
It was…"
"The family bought me one for Christmas... Outside of taking it out for a professional setup, and strumming a few chords I haven't played it. I can't hardly wait!
We allow everyone to open one gift on Christmas Eve...guess which one…"
