What good can a bass preamp do for acoustic guitar?

English folk singer and acoustic guitarist John Smith has toured the World as a solo artist and appeared as a sideman to David Gray, Lisa Hannigan, and Joan Baez. His albums have collected over 50 million Spotify streams. He knows all about the challenges of getting a good sound out of an acoustic guitar on stage and the benefits of traveling light. When he found the EBS Stanley Clarke Signature Acoustic Preamp, created for bass, he finally found the tool he'd been looking for to shape his guitar tone.
The EBS Stanley Clarke Signature Acoustic Preamp is available through well-sorted music stores and online dealers Worldwide.

I bought one of these a few months ago to use with my Gypsy Jazz guitar. I run both a K&K Pure floating bridge pickup and an Audio-Technica AT 831b into it. Great sound and balance/EQ options. Love it!

Hey there - I seriously am looking into getting this thing, as I'm also an acoustic fingerstyle player. Just one thing that's holding me back - I don't see any blend knob to create mixing the channels however you want. Do you just use the gain controls to make up for that? How does the blending work?

[@EBSSweden]

Correct. The individual Gain knobs set the levels for the mix.

Any idea if EBS Micro Bass 3 also works with acoustic guitar?

[@EBSSweden]

The clean channel works excellent for acoustic instruments, but you may not have a lot of use for drive when using acoustic instruments. There isn't an option to use an external microphone to feed one of the channels on the MB3 either, as it is on the Stanley Clarke preamp, so you can only connect a guitar with a built-in pickup system.
