i figured it was better to post this in here instead of the actual headphone amp forum... soooooo...here goes:
i've been wanting to learn guitar for a while now, couple of years now actually, and this month, after reading thru a good bit of Jahn's "Curse you head-fi thread," drooling over his collection, i think i'm ready to take the plunge.
[size=xx-small](Curse you Jahn!)[/size]
i think i've got a lock on what i want, and i'm sure i dont want one of those starter kits, they just screams "you'll be sorry" to me for some reason, so i'm browsing around at local shops, and http://www.guitarcenter.com/, building a rig piece by piece(in my mind at least
) but i'm stuck on the amp...
problem is, i'm still at home with the parents, and i'm sure they wont appreciate me practicing at night while they are sleeping, which is pretty much the only time i'd be able to practice other than days i'm off. so i think that has to rule out a full size marshall for the time being... so the big question, as a decent starter amp(as well as a sanity check for the parents
), what do the local guitar gods think of those little battery powered portable guitar/headphone amps, like this one? if all else fails, if it comes with the same headphones pictured, at least i got another headband for another ksc75 mod
or am i just barking up the wrong tree?
(btw: what i'm looking at is an Epiphone Les Paul Studio Chameleon, and a few others around that range)
