ToneShield - have you guys seen this?

ToneShield v3

ToneShield v2 guitar amp shield including Adjustable Base with unlimited angles and disassembly for easy travel. ToneShield v2 sets up in seconds and disperses the beaming effect of guitar amps better than most other guitar amp shields resulting in a smooth tone with better high to low frequency...

It seems kinda, incomplete? Like, it doesn't block an entire speaker, unless you're using a 1x12 cab?

That mustang is sweet!

I got an email from TGP about it earlier. No idea what it does

My understanding is that the idea is to avoid the beam from a guitar cab hitting the audience, or maybe avoid the guitar bleeding into vocal mics and so on.

There was a time when I wanted something like this. I was going to go with a Plexiglas shield but decided not to. I put tilt back legs on the amp and that did the trick.

The only time I’ve seen these was bands playing in casinos

Hasn't this been been done before?

I thought you were supposed to ignore bands in Casinos and act like they are not even there.

Yeah the Tone Shield has been around for quite a few years.

I can’t stand casinos and don’t know the rules, but no one was paying attention regardless, which grabbed my attention thinking “ this might be the shittiest gig ever”, and on top of it every member had plexiglass in front of them which just seemed silly for ceilne dion or whatever they were playing lol

Friends Don't Let Friends Casino Band.

The money is usually far, far better. However, the Casino DOES
NOT WANT people sitting and watching the Band. No f'ing way!

When/if people are enjoying the band those same people are not pulling handles
on the Moneymakers.

I actually know a Band or two that was let go from Casinos because they drew too
much attention to themselves.

Yes, you can be "too good for your own good."

I've had these on my Marshall 4x12 for years now. Don't really cut down on volume but do seem to get rid of the beams....recommended....

My story from was from Vegas in a smaller room that was a cover band, here in CT though at Mohegan Sun they have the “Wolf Den” which is a big stage with a small floor for standing that is surrounded by whatever slots and games, it’s mostly old one hitter wonder bands and washed up shit like Stephen Pearcys Ratt and the like, apparently the bigger clubs that used to have these bands are kind of fucked cause the casino will pay 4x as much and these bands just play there now instead of the clubs.
