      I use my Boss GT-3 .
      It has an acoustic setting on it. I use it along with a Dean Markley Pro-Mag pickup, which i can slip in and out of the soundhole.
      It sounds really good.
      especially through a large PA system.
      The GT-3 also has about a dozen settings like reverb chorus and a bunch of others that sound weird. The GT-3 is an old and probably rare multi-effects peddleboard that would be hard to find nowadays. But if you could get your hands on one, you would not have to use the actual peddleboard you have.
      That is because the GT-3 is a compact 1 unit deal that does everything under the sun.
      Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.
      Thank you. 👍

      @Vern859 cool man and thanks for the info! I had a digital Boss unit years ago. Don't remember what it was but I was always tweaking the knobs, I was never happy with my tone. It was probably more me than the unit hahaha but I went back to pedals and I never looked back 😃

      I have both now.
      But i tend to get a really nice tone both ways. The GT-3 is just more versatile, and it is a tank. 👍

    Hey J-Man, I really appreciate getting this together soon! Your acoustic chops are really great despite not having too much experience with them. What I think I realize is that this pedal is optimized for the electric guitar player, not acoustic guitar. It didn’t sound horrible but it wasn’t the best tone either. It had nothing to do with your playing which is excellent. I’m using a Fishman Tonedeq DI now and I will just stick with that. Major props to you brother for your performance and help to the acoustic guitar community 👍

    Acoustic guitars are shockingly different from electric guitars, aren't they?!? They have exactly the same fretboard layout as electrics, and yet, they do play differently... Heavier gauge strings with bronze windings instead of nickel windings, and (typically) slightly higher action than electric guitars make a big difference to the feel!
