The most underrated acoustic shaping pedal on the market

@@SOAMLE l agree!

I decided to give the AC 3 a try. I played on it today with my Zagar 80 Aura running through my mixer in my studio, and I wasn’t disappointed. I was able to cut through the mix easily and really had a nice sound. I don’t care much for the compressor, but as for the pedal itself I think it sounded pretty good, and was easy to dial in my desired tone. Might have different option of the compressor if I hook it up through the XLRs or through my acoustic amp? Just haven’t got around to that yet! You all have a great day!

Thanks for the video and the very good review. The pedal sounds great and something I'm seriously considering purchasing 👍

[@CharlieLuscombeGuitaristUK]

Thanks - good luck with your playing 🎶

Nice to see someone who has done a more recent and thorough review on this pedal. Great job on the video! I’m currently using a Line 6 PodGo for my acoustic guitar for worship music in church. It’s a bit more involved with creating tones but it’s really good. I’m interested in picking up one of these for something less complex. Cheers!

[@CharlieLuscombeGuitaristUK]

Thanks so much - really appreciated! All the best with your playing :)

Great review👌

Great review indeed, thx for posting ! One question: the way I'm hearing comment at 1:05, there is a way to completely bypass the modeling section (source and target guitars) to let through the tone from the guitar being played, in this case the Maton, without any processing. I always thought we couldn't bypass the modeling section ?

[@HumbleHeartMinistry]

Thanks for the demo! Love the pedal But I just wish it was in smaller size.

[@CharlieLuscombeGuitaristUK]

@@HumbleHeartMinistry there is a smaller version too 😉

Great review I am currently looking for some to enhance my acoustic live sound. Someone commented that you cant use the effects at the same time is this true?

[@CharlieLuscombeGuitaristUK]

Thank you - appreciate that! With this unit you can use the standard reverb on the left, one of the effects at a time in the middle of the unit such as the pad sound, then also the compressor and boost at the same time if you wanted to 👍

[@scinnamontsys]

Can you use this pedal to make an electric guitar sound like an acoustic guitar?

[@CharlieLuscombeGuitaristUK]

It’s more to tone match your guitar really but you may be able to get certain results trying it! I don’t think it will totally model an electric to acoustic though 🎶
