What would you even do to use it at a gig? Set it on top of something and mic it? It's just SO small!
It is very small for a stage, but that doesn't really matter in my opinion. The people that are there to see you play and for the music don't really know anything about amps, nor do they care, when you first bring it out they might think of it as a toy and almost laughable, but it would be forgotten once the music started. The same with musicians, most of them would probably just be amazed at how great an amp of this size sounds. But I defiinitely do know what you mean, in that the amp has NO stage presence. Even though it's the band that's supposed to have it, having bigger, nicer looking amps does make an image difference. I totally get where you're at. I guess it comes down to how much your willing to sacrifice for sound. It's one of the reasons I haven't tried it yet for sure, but at the same time it might even be an ice-breaker when playing in front of a crowd!
(Because it's so small it's hilarious 
)And yeah it would just sit and get mic'd up. It would probably have to sit ON something (like you said), because the hardest part of this amp is finding a mic stand small enough to mic it
It would have to be on a riser or something, or just on top of another amp! I haven't used it yet personally, I'm still using my Fender Blues Jr. to gig with, because I LOVE it's tone, it's a good size to travel with, and the sound just really suits my playing style. But I do plan to try out the ZT in the future. If it works as well as I think it will, I might just KEEP gigging with it. It's super small, and super clean. 
it's worth remembering that every guitar is a bit different for god knows how many reasons (to greater or lesser extents), and chances are you played a Casino that was in much better nick that my housemate's lol (which isn't hard - he doesn't murder it but like I said, I sincerely doubt he's ever properly set it up since he bought it last year). I'd say I've yet to play a guitar better than my Explorer, but that's because it's suits me to a tee. I love the sound I get out of it with my set-up and think it feels better than anything else I've played, which, granted, isn't an incredible amount of guitars but enough to give me a sense of what I'm dealing with, I figure.
I'm using an RP250 right now, and it sounds... just fantastic. ![[image]](http://content.waltons.ie/Content/images/products/03aepi-etca-vs-ch1_full.jpg){kind=link}
