Well said, rockstar_not.
Guitar amp alone doesn't get it done.

I've tried it with a Quilter Micro Pro HD 12, Fender Vibrolux, Fender Mustang GT

The high end disappears and the "band" turns into mud.
Separation between instruments (especially bass/drums/organ) no longer exist.
Its just not good enough to play behind at a real gig.
Playing at a friends Bar-B-QUe, maybe.

I think an amp sim with full range powered speaker or PA is the best sounding rig I've come across so far.

An frfr speaker (like QSC 12.2) works well for this.

Currently I use a EV Evolve 50 line array with a Tech 21 flyrig as the sim.
Ipad for the backing tracks. Normally I use a cable from the Ipad but the EV bluetooth is pretty good.

The EV has better (to my ears) bottom/separation than the QSC but costs a bit more
My whole rig packs in/out in 2 trips to the car.
I'm guitar/tracks with no singing so I don't pack a mixer or Mic Stand/Mic
The bottom of the EV is about 42 lbs, about the weight of a Vibrolux.
I wish it were lighter (I'm 61) but the sound is worth it.

My $.02
