  • I have had a Fishman SA220 for the last seven years. It’s nothing but problems. 1st, the zippers on the gig bag deteriorated after four years. I no longer have a gig bag. 2nd, the control panel deteriorated around the same time. Dull muffled buzzing sound then the right channel died. Then the entire thing died. Fishman replaces the control panel and that one died six weeks after the replacement. They replaced that one and it has been working for about a week.

    For ten years previously I gigged with a PVi4B mixer and two speakers. Never had an issue. Bought a PV Ecoustic 112 combo and never had a problem. Change to Fishman SA220 and it’s all been downhill. Three other musicians have has problems with the SA 220 as well. I was at a gig two weeks ago and my buddies 220 died in the middle of a song. He smacked it and it came back to life. The 220 is junk.

  • I just saw someone gigging with one of these last weekend & we were blown away by the sound. It looks weird but it sounded full & FAT. We WANT one now.

  • Thanks for this!
    I notice that you've recorded the amp with a condenser mic here..:why didn't you use the DI out to record? The reason I ask: I want to use the amp as stagemonitor, dial in the sound that I want and then take that to front of house..:would you get a 'truer' sound if you'd mike the amp up on stage rather than taking a DI line out to FOH?, Regards
