GoPro headcam test. Buskers eye view! With Canjo

VIRTUAL TIP JAR! https://www.musicxray.com/tip_jars/12975

https://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/

My first try at using the head cam while busking. Meant it to show people's reactions to the Canjo, but it was pointing too far down for that : -/
Think I would have felt a bit silly in St Ives or Huntingdon with a camera strapped to my head, but it felt ok in Cambridge, people didn't take much notice....

I think I agree with your conclusion
No perfect amp for the job

I've come to the conclusion that there is no perfect amp, lol! Each has it's strong and weak points.

 I use the internal looper. Would rather take mine but as the amp is bigger than the Vox it's a bit much to take that as well. The looper on it is fine, but pretty basic (no undo!) It would be close to perfect except for the fact that the sound drops right down if you make a sudden loud noise, which is a pretty big downside the way I use it! I stopped using it for ages because of this, but started taking it recently as recording from it to the Zoom H2n I can get pretty good sound....

It's a nice looking amp that one, I like the rosewood one: 

Is that the best one you have found yet then, do you use the internal looper or use your looper?

thanks Chris, yeah I should have handed out motion sickness tablets with this vid!

  I didn't use the Vox as I wanted to record the sound and the sound cuts off on that if you connect to the headphone out. Used my Roland AC33.

  Yep have tested it on the end of the CBG which works well. I'm sure I'll do a vid with it like that soon...

Stick it on the end of the cbg if you can that's also a fun angle to try..

Comment by BUGGY (C) on April 28, 2015 at 7:42pm

"Well Done Bemuzic" and the head cam thing does not look silly.

When I first started my CBG journey some two years ago, one of the first utube vid's I discovered was "The Ouse Blues Machine" which blew me away (still does), the second build I done was based on this, stone nut & tin bridge etc, and it still hangs proudly on my wall, it has since been followed by many more builds (abt 175).

"Thank You" for your initial (and ongoing) inspirations.
