Customer Reviewsfrom Guadalajara, JAL MEX October 29, 2008 Music Background: Music student No other as good as AC-3In the matter of getting the unique and best sound out of guitar, there is one point in which hands need extra help. I have found AC-3 not just a practic pedal with 4 strong and seriously real acoustic modes. In addition, it's amazing the body and definition guitar can get from this box.I have learn that in the process to be a good guitar player is a must to find and decide which sound contributes to the music concept and style. If Playing demands some nice acoustic tone, BOSS AC-3 WILL NEVER FAIL. from Alamogordo, NM USA September 14, 2007 Music Background: singer songwriter, semi-pro musician, live sound engineer Simple solutionI purchased this to give life to the stock sound of an Ibanez AE410 semi-hollow acoustic electric w/under saddle piezo pickup. It works well for this application. It sounds best put through "line out" into a PA but gives a nice effect to an electric guitar through a guitar amp. The best way to employ this device is attached to both outputs - PA and amp.It is easy to grasp setup and quick to establish a decent acoustic effect. Active electronics onboard the guitar make for a poor sound through the AC-3. The most convincing tone is by an unamplified signal (to my ear.) This device was worth the money and has breathed new life into a nice but rarely used instrument. I think the AC-3 makes for an unusual guitar FX as well (as opposed to an acoustic simulation.) from usa December 5, 2009 Music Background: 30 yrs gospel jazz rock blues worht the moneyi have the ac-3 and have used it on numerous occassions when i 1st purchased it i had to try several guitars to get the type of acoustic sound i needed and found tht strats (love the guitar ) but doesnt make an good acoustic tone ive found that my gibson simihollow body works the best for sound with the high turned to medium u have to play ard with the tones a bit but definitly worth the money |
