First, I understand that Fender Twin TM is not a good acoustic guitar amp (and I do own a Fishman Loudbox mini)
but. . . .
Any of you Twin Tone Master owners find any EQ settings, bright switch, input 1 or 2 combinations that are passible for playing a dobro or acoustic at gigs?
The amp is working fantastically for pedal steel, blues lap steel, and blues harp, thanks to the attenuator switch. It's good enough that I could probably start leaving my pedal board behind. . .
The coup de grace would be if I could get it to sound good with my dobro/nashville pick-up/JD Aura pedal, and also with my Gibson L-00 with LR Baggs Element pickup.
Anybody discover any settings for acoustics that you are pleased with?
thanks,

A banjo, like a pet monkey, seems like a good idea at first.

I honestly never tried it but I have my doubts. There may be a way with some outboard gear to eq more in detail. I have a Fender Mustang III that was supposed to be acoustic friendly also. I wasn't satisfied with it and acoustic. I may try my Tonemaster and see what the results are with and without the Fishman Aura Spectrum.

I have used the Tone Master Twin with my d’Angelico Excel Madison, which has a Fishman pickup in it. I may have dialed up the brightness a bit on the Fishman tone controls, but other than that it sounds okay to me. Didn’t need to change a lot on the TM controls. I use the TM reverb, and that’s okay too. Not sure I’d gig that way, but then, I don’t gig a lot anyway…
