I, too, have no affiliation with Matamp, only that I own three of their hand built creations albeit in combo form.
I, too, endorse fully what Mitch is saying with regards to Matamp - I haven't found better for what I want out of a guitar amp yet.
However, when playing bass you'll find me using a B15 or my old Elgen 100W through a Barefaced 2x10 Retro cabinet. (and God help the sound "engineer" who fiddles with my settings)

Interesting about the Pignose amp and 461 Ocean Blvd...never would have tied the two together in my mind...but there are some strange guitar sounds on that album that worked well for what it was...a unique, excellent hybrid rock pop blues album...

Anyone got one of these? reckon it kooks quite cool. Hi Jono, It would be hard to go wrong with any of these small amps as long as your not looking for a loud clean sound. This one sounds pretty good at about the same level as his speaking voice on a clean uke... the original little pignose is more for wailing. They were real popular and I regularly took mine on the boat. the use of small amps in the studio is pretty common but from what Ive seen its more than one amp at the same time. I.e. A pignose along with a fender twin sporting jbl d130s. I use a digitech looper pedal that has AB otputs and regularly use two amps at once. Its a great way to get a really big fat sound. Ive never used the pignose is an AB rig... i might try it...if I can find it. All best, jeff Ha!... 70's pignose... proper settings, volume and door wide open Not exactly a suitcase... more of a shoebox. Sadly, I havent touched this thing in 20 years + Attachments:

I used to have a Pignose but it got swiped. My brother just got one for free at the freecycling place he goes to. Here's a video of FZ playing on Mike Douglas using a Pignose. I'm sure he has some other effects before the amp but there it is.
