Aine ,

For many years i have used an old pyramid ( remember those ??? ) electric acoustic Archtop , but the best amps as far as i`m concerned are Yorkville or Traynor , they are made in toronto under the Yorkville Sound Design Factory , they sell for a reasonable , check out pawn shops for the guitars and amps and keep looking and playing till you find the one you want

Johnny Cash

P.S Older and used can be better
