Product information

General

Boss's AC-3 Acoustic Simulator pedal offers electric guitarists the opportunity to create the characteristic tones of an acoustic guitar. Plug your electric axe into the AC-3, and you're able to produce an acoustic sound without having to bring an extra guitar. Thanks to COSM modelling technology, this Boss effect pedal is capable of transforming your electric guitar sound into various acoustic models. There are four models to choose from: Standard, Jumbo, Enhance and Piezo. The latter especially cuts through any mix.

The sound of the Acoustic Simulator's various models can be fully adjusted to your personal preferences. Using the Top and Body knobs, for instance, it's possible to adjust the virtual body resonance. For some extra flair, you can use the AC-3's reverb, which has its own level knob.

Boss has designed the AC-3 for stage applications and travelling musicians - that much is clear from its two outputs. One allows for a direct connection to an amplifier, while the other sends out a line signal to a PA system, a recorder or another effect.

Boss AC-3 Acoustic Simulator

Prima klank, eenvoudig in gebruik. Mijn collega-bandleden waren verrast van de sound die er uit kwam. Snelle levering ook...

Boss AC-3 Acoustic Simulator

Klinkt op zich goed. Het geluid is niet te vergelijken met een fysieke akoestisch gitaar. Pedaaltje is wel handig als ik in de oefenruimte over wil overschakelen naar akoestisch, hoef ik niet steeds van gitaar te wisselen. Het is geen pedaaltje die ik live zou gebruiken, daar is hij niet goed genoeg voor dus hang ik live mijn akoestische om.

Het is geen echte akoestische gitaar, maar qua pedaal de beste modulator die ik ken!

Geweldig, niet te geloven dat het geen accoustisch guitar is, Gibson LP met aktief elementen en die klinkt als een echt accoustisch !

Boss AC-3 Acoustic Simulator

prima dingetje zoals de meeste dingen van boss. natuurlijk is gewoon een echte akoestische gitaar qua sound niet te verslaan maar als je snel moet schakelen tussen electrisch en akoestisch is dit wel een prima oplossing. alleen adviseer ik er wel een oeding bij want dat ding vreet nog meer batterijen dan de vibrator van mijn vriendin ;-)

Boss AC-3 Acoustic Simulator

Mooie box van Boss en ik vind hem goed klinken. Scheelt alweer gesjouw met een acoustische gitaar. Behoorlijk wat geluidsmogelijkheden en een apart te regelen galm. Verder alles prima zoals ik gewend ben van Bax.

Boss AC-3 Acoustic Simulator

Prachtige sound en vooral oneindig veel mogelijkheden om de sound van je wens te zoeken en te vinden.
één bedenking echter, als je over een Roland versterker beschikt laat de "Bright" knop dan voor wat hij is anders krijg je een vreselijke metaalklank ipv van een dure acoustische gitaarklank
