Well, I went from the Marshall AS50D to the Fishman Loudbox Mini - both wonderful amps but I have to say in my opinion the Marshall seems to have more umph to it as well as quite a few more features for only $90 more. That being said, the Mini sounds very natural, very neutral, but in some ways it seems a bit thin (although it was the bassy sound of the Marshall that was bothering me both in terms of exaggerating my already overly-sensitive Phantom pickup and making the vocals less bright). I'm figuring I will find the right combination of bass, middle and treble to get the sound I want, but, as I said, I think I had more of a rapport with the Marshall.
One thing I have to say about Fishman. I had a question about the sound of it at start up and was able to call and get a real live tech person within seconds - yes, seconds. They answered my questions, spent time with me and I came away from that experience with an incredibly good feeling about Fishman as a company.
