The BEST Portable PA System? Fishman Loudbox Artist Demo

[@seandaniel23]

The fine people at Sweetwater sent me a Fishman Loudbox Artist amp so I thought I'd grab the squad and play it on the street before coming back to the studio and running it through its paces! Check one out for yourself: imp.i114863.net/MXmqBq

[@freesk8]

Sean, you inspired me, man. Took my six-string to a bench next to the grocery store today. Played about a dozen songs. Working on eroding my stress levels about playing in public. Thanks again for the inspiration! :)

[@Marys-Channel]

I play everywhere I can on the sidelines to build my confidence in public. The beach is my hang out.😎

[@ElJafaz]

Feel like I am repeating myself, but thanks for the video HackDaddy! The one good thing of this last year or so was that I had a lot of time to get back into guitar and find the help of your and your peer's videos, but the bad thing is I have missed live music soooo much. This video made me happy we are close to live music, and also made me feel I may want to overcome my fear and play live in front of "insert business here" (most likely will chicken out, but the closest brave thought I've had yet!). Thanks again for all your content buddy!

[@boomerdell]

Love hearing you guys play! Street music is always such a great idea, especially when it's of this extraordinary caliber. Wow. Thanks, guys!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@RC32Smiths01]

Sounds fantastic man! Great work!

[@gerrypair3856]

I have one and I love it. I was all most was going to buy the Fisher 180 watt. But this loud enough for me. Ya sound so good.

[@TheFeelButton]

When I'm not busy playing on one sidewalk I'm busy playing on the next! Cheers Sean, Pasha and Andrea!!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks as always bud!

[@DavidBridwellMusic]

Welcome back, looking forward to more live music!

[@seandaniel23]

It's good to be back!

[@gmee123]

I was just at sweetwater today checking into an acoustic amp. This was VERY informative! Thanks for the detailed review and your thoughts. It's helped me decide :D

[@seandaniel23]

I’m a big fan. Used this for a TON of shows since posting the video. Great amp

[@ToadMeister313]

Sounds wonderful. I really enjoyed listening to you guys!

[@mirandaterrell]

I’m glad I don’t live wherever you are - I’d never get any work done. “Sorry, I had to go to a coffee shop street concert to listen to this amazing guitar player and violinist.”

[@seandaniel23]

aw thanks!

[@msenecal]

If I lived in Sarasota I would weigh 500 pounds from listening to you at the bakery all the time.

[@AndreaSilvestro]

We love this lil Fishman!

[@randolphgallagher7942]

Does it smell like fish?

[@seandaniel23]

It rydes

[@Smelly_D]

I use the loudbox mini behind my Taylor. It sounds sooooo good. It definitely sounds bigger than it is.

[@Smelly_D]

Although the little version doesn’t have all those extra effects. Just reverb and chorus.

[@seandaniel23]

Very cool Dan. Yeah I'm definitely digging it.

[@jcburger733]

Glad to see that you are able to start getting the show on the road again. Great street performance and I love when you and Andrea jam together too. The Fishman Loudbox Artist amp seems to be pretty versatile and sounds incredible.

[@mikefranks6854]

Damn you have a loudbox and a 505 now! You are the envy of all I see. Can't wait to see what you do with the 505.... Can't wait.

[@timrox5626]

I like that last song you guys did!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks!! It's one of our favorites to play :)

[@mariejarreau7251]

@@seandaniel23 Is it ME? Is it the Loudbox sound? I could NOT understand the lyrics as she was singing? Or is that STYLE??? I use a Loudbox and it aiways sounds clear as glass! Confused by this one.

[@rault26]

Great demo, really enjoyed this vid and your playing...subbed, so I noticed you reviewed a bose s1 pro before this one...would it be safe to say you like this one more? Can you explain why? I actually just bought a used one of the old non BT version from guitar center and so far I love the sound I'm getting, but the bose is on sale for not much more than I paid and I am torn on what to do...most of the vids I've seen of the pro, the vox and the guitar sound a bit cold and digital...but not sure if it's just their settings...I also feel like mic gain might be an issue on that unit...the artist seems warmer and more natural and looks like it gets louder...I also don't love the lack of mid control in the nose and no phantom power, but the battery is a really nice feature to have especially for busking....would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks!

[@freesk8]

I have the Fishman Loudbox Mini. Sounds and works great. My only regret about it is that it lacks phantom power for the condenser mics. Saved $300 on it under the deluxe model you got! My little one has two inputs: guitar and non-power mic. Probably good enough for most solo guitar gigs. Good enough for my amateur level. :)

[@elkapath]

Does it have any reverb for vocals?

[@seandaniel23]

Yup! And it sounds great :)

[@BaktaBak3]

What are you using to power the Fishman Loudbox Artist Amp to busk on the streets ? I'm currently using the Roland Cube Street. Runs on batteries and is light.

[@seandaniel23]

It has to be plugged in. We're just running an extension chord

[@ptms1232]

Thanks for the 2 channel only mix out info...game changer for me....no go with Fishman!

[@Yahoomediaclub]

Sounds awesome…Brilliantly done review..Thanks…Can’t believe the features and the I/O 💯 % Glasgow Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@deltablue6618]

I just bought the Fishman performer, I'm excited to see how my Taylor sounds through it!

[@fezzard]

so how does it sound thru it?

[@deltablue6618]

@@fezzard sounds awesome! It's a really good amp.

[@lisahart1725]

I loved this! I hope your tips were AMAZING...as you guys are just that! ( wish I had a fiddler! )

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much Lisa!

[@Js1u]

Can you plug an electric guitar to this amp? And if so, what are the pros-cons?

[@stevekirkland5775]

Works fine. Nice, clean sound and even takes my pedals well even low to mid gain. I was surprised how good various electrics sound from single coils to P90s to humbuckers…all at low to med volumes in a duo format. My experience anyway.

[@lisahart1725]

Gggood to hear about the tips and sound system

[@JP1AO]

You guys are doing great. Did Pasha have a Bose? How did they compare?

[@RANDOG1951]

My Spark arrived yesterday. Now, how to use the bloody thing. For ya'll, Fishman or Spark?

[@seandaniel23]

I've never used a spark but I'm really digging the Fishman so far

[@billa7606]

Hey Sean, do you offer guitar lessons?

[@seandaniel23]

Sadly i don't have much time to teach one on one anymore but that's why I've just been teaching everything I know over on my Patreon.

[@sapelesteve]

Nicely done you guys! Fishman definitely makes some of the best amps. They have been at it for a long time. 👍👍👏👏👏👏👍👍

[@jixxxxer17]

can the loudbox artist be sent to an external speaker cab like a regular guitar amp head while matching the ohms or not really ? Great Video , Peace !

[@HarleyBob957]

awh dude..wearing shorts... we got 2 inches of snow this morning ...nice amp..

[@robertroe9669]

So Sean, are you going to be using the Loudbox for your regular (non busking) gigs?

[@dcarts5616]

That Taylor looking sharp Sean! Is it just me or is it really sounding fuller as it’s aging even if only after a few months?

[@seandaniel23]

Honestly I think it is opening up a bit

[@zseeley]

How do you set up this amp for a microphone and guitar for a performance? I find controling the guitar volume with the microphone volume troublesome...

[@bills1779]

Is both the guitar and violin plugged into the amp?

[@nledelnr]

@ 5:54 that banana look like its past the pull date... also, The Taylor pickup sounds great through this speaker...would this amp sound equally good if someone were playing a Martin D28 with a KNK Pure Mini Pickup?

[@jasper_north]

Sean, is the ARTIST much bigger then the MINI? And as far as weight??

[@markbradford9984]

Sean, have you thought of doing a Pasha / Sean version of Richter’s ‘Spring 1’, with guitar comping/backing and a Pasha interpretation of the violin lead? Ryde that!

[@seandaniel23]

Oooh that's a cool idea.

[@tsfurlan]

May I ask how long you played to make 200?

[@seandaniel23]

2 hours

[@srikanthnarayanan]

Can the Effects Return inputs on the back panel be used as additional inputs for say Keyboards or Drum machines?

[@HL-OOI]

Do you have a “pop” sound when switching off/on the power without turning the master volume down..I just got the loudbox mini and it does that..

[@evanmolin438]

What was the song at the end?

[@jasper_north]

Hello there...what cables do you use for the mic and what cables for the guitar? Thank you so much again...

[@seandaniel23]

I mostly use Hosa cables. Great stuff.

[@charlieytpw]

Check the larger Fishman amp....much better. So, there must be dress code for street performers. Sasha went from short Ot pants. Second gig...... Ps. Dance tunes Ps. Much better with Taylor acoustic. Lessons learned. Right.

[@mellowgeekstudio]

0:58 Hope you played Baker Street. *Tuntuntz* Come on man, that was a perfect setup, you slept on the punchline. That's understandable though, prostate issues are known to prostrate our funny bones. ;)

[@steveelling9604]

Rockin' Sarasota at the crack of dawn! OK, maybe more like 10 a.m.

[@3cardmonty602]

Andrea looks like she’s still hurting from 420

[@seandaniel23]

So hard keeping her on the straight and narrow

[@dcarts5616]

They’re vegans. I doubt that they dabble in consumptive of the devil’s lettuce. ;)

[@RANDOG1951]

Bet you 3 could make some mega bucks from the SteelDrivers Reckless / Midnight on the Mountain. Some picking, finger work for your fender, and Angel's voice. - Andrea.

[@voronOsphere]

Road Trip!!!!

[@jasper_north]

How is it for vocals?

[@seandaniel23]

Really good, I’ve played a bunch of shows with it since!

[@ghooks9868]

I’d like to hear your opinion on the Fishman’s reverb and chorus effects compared to your pedals. I have the LoudBox Mini, and I loved it from the first strum.

[@seandaniel23]

Good idea for a shootout!

[@beatleme2]

Banana split..Lol..edit love that portable fishman - edit if it has an 8" speaker id pop in my JBL d208 ..little miniature d120f ...love the old alnico D series but yeah

[@jordanmatchett8341]

WHere are you from where every sentence ends with an "Ah".?

[@timmcgurl]

@jordanmachett8431 I found his sentence ending upward speech "eh?" very annoying! I see you couldn't help but comment on that quirky sound as well. Like every sentence ends in a question, "eh?"😅

[@Cruelriver]

Did you buy the juliana pedal or make it? sorry im dumb

[@seandaniel23]

Walrus Audio made it and sent it to me.

[@didamnesia3575]

It cant be the best when the fishman performer is literally one step up in the same line. So, it can be 2nd best only. Thats how it works
