Other times this has been listed, people say it's worth the extra $10 for built in bluetooth on the BONES UK version

I had that small Marshall amp (looks like a dual stack cabinet) an it was pure junk sound. I know not to buy Marshall an possibly a pedal would've made it better but I'm pretty sure it was junk sound an junk db

I built myself a custom 4 x 4" battery powered amp and it murders this, but it is custom tho, and I spent hundreds plus months to design and build it. Worth it for me, works even as an amp cuz it is loud. I imagine the Phil Jones would also be better than this, but take a look at the price tag. I just figured if I wanted better than the blackstar for an acceptable price, I'd have to build one myself. The target market is small (lmao) but also very expensive. For guitar, this thing is beast imo. Bass is a different story altogether, not just for this blackstar but in general.
Also keep in mind that the power supply it requires if you dont wanna use batteries is sort of hard to find unless you buy OEM. I wanted to use a powerbank for it but it was difficult to find one that provides the specific voltage and amperage required. Batteries last a decent while though honestly if not fully cranked and blasting.

The portable PA worked excellent for my guitar, has wheels an a telescopic handle an a newer 240 watt version exists with heavy duty wheels. I'm having problems finding the perfect mix of new gear tho. So many things have 5/6 things I need. What I really would like is an all in one that has no latency, outputS an inputS with separate adjustment knobs for each, an can do everything from bass/speaker test tracks to high pitches squealing, with no feedback or added noise, an is loud, but as small as can be. I already have a small speaker that provides latency thru the jack an muddies the sound of a 6 string bass. So I'll pass here.
I actually dragged that an my instrument up a steep mountain side to play in the middle of a jungleish environment. Tho even lifting for years by the time I got everything up there I barely had the stamina to play (an looked wrecked from sweating an exhaustion). Would be eaiser to do more dumb things like that probably if I had a not so small, no so medium JBL. If I get into bigger items like jbl party boxes none of them have the ruggedness of the ion pa selections. In case I get in the middle of a mountain area again, or be it just a protest that turns into a small war 😅 oh an it rains in most citites so it's nice to be able to at least expect it to live running to put the stuff inside. Tho some citites it always rains an would be nice to just stay outside like their citizens do since it always rains
When it comes to batteries my pedals have always been using rechargeable for like 29 years an i got eneloops or lithium for that.
