For years I've been gigging with just an acoustic guitar, which although fun and working well, is not where my heart lies. I grew up on bands, loud music, rock, pop punk, loud electric guitars, etc. and acoustic just didn't quite cut it for me.
I've considered backings before but never really liked the look of someone standing and playing around with their phone/laptop/iPad/etc. to start songs. I've also seen peoples performances fail due to phones having no connectivity, OR getting a call mid song and cutting everything out!
Now, it's all in a simple pedal! Out of view of the audience, looking like an effects pedal for the guitar, not a laptop taking up stage space, or a phone looking like a distraction!
Simple to use in terms up set up, and there's plenty of guidance available for everyone! My live shows have been completely changed with this pedal for the better! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to add more to their live shows!
