I ordered an acoustic amplifier for my violin today. I've been using a Pandora PX4 with headphones, but now would like real amplified sound. Of course, you'd ask, why would I use an amplifier anyway, my violin is all electric, one of John Jordan's (jordanmusic.com). Anyway, can't wait to use the amp, it's a Genz Benz Shen Pro.

This Fall, I'm taking some violin classes through Santa Monica College. My boss is allowing me to take these classes even though they are during work hours. I love understanding workplaces like that.
