Peche/Stimer style pickup into PA?

markusmanouche

Hey Everyone,

I have a peche a la mouche pickup that I LOVE and I currently play it through my blues junior which sounds amazing. However, I’m in the market for a small but mighty battery powered PA (probably the Traynor TVM15 or BOSS Street II) that I could use for busking, but I’m not sure how the peche pickup would sound with it. Does anyone have experience with playing a peche/Stimer through a PA? Thanks!

Can you clarify what you mean by PA? The street cube is not really what gigging people would call a PA. They're nice amps though, and works well for busking (I had a similar setup in busking in Paris)

Wow that’s the exact setup I was thinking of! Good point, PA probably wasn’t the right term for the street cube. Since it has a microphone input I guess I just lumped it in with other PAs. I’m glad to hear the setup worked well for you. Any clips of you playing through it? Thanks!

Actually, Roland lists the Street Cube and Street Cube EX under the Portable PA Systems link. https://www.roland.com/us/categories/amplifiers/portable_pa_systems/

I have the 5 watt (2x2.5w) version and it sounds great with my Krivo Nuevo single coil pickup. It is difficult to see the amp as a PA, but for a busker with mic and electric guitar, it is perfectly designed. More from Roland/Boss:

Portable PA

• It’s a guitar amp and mini PA system in one! With its dual-channel architecture and XRL/1/4” Microphone input, you can sing and play guitar through one convenient amplifier. There’s even a delay and reverb devoted to the Mic/Line channel.
