I would say $500 of less.

We play Death Metal, so I don't know if that will matter much. Just need it for vocals and maybe playing drum track though.

Yeah the squire looks ok,if poss get one with line out sockets then you could add a power amp and bass cabs later for gigs.

What about this: raleigh.craigslist.org/msg/292972451.html

It will ONLY be used for band practice for vocals and maybe drums tracks. No gigs, just band pracitce.

Another bargain,if you place the speakers facing you the vol can go up without feedback,should be enough,if not back line can come down:)

Ok,but the correct position of a monitor/speaker to reduce feedback for a mike is to follow an imaginary line from the angle of the mike on a stand to the point it meets the floor or wall and have the centre of the speaker at right angles to the line facing the base of the mike:) If you doubt this try holding the mike,turn up amp till it just feeds back then move the mike around to find how to stop it,it wont take long:)

I bought the PA that I posted that I found on Craigslist. I really think it is going to do us perfect.

We do not have a drummer and will be playing the drum tracks through the PA along with the vocals.


Thank you for everyones input!!!
