Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Boss dealer

The Boss AC2 Acoustic Simulator is a compact effects pedal designed to accurately simulate the sounds of an acoustic guitar from a standard electric. With 4 distinct acoustic guitar modes, the AC2 gives electric guitarists the freedom to instantly "go unplugged" with the stomp of a foot pedal

Features
Delivers amazing acoustic guitar simulation using a standard electric guitar.

4 acoustic "modes" give guitarists distinct acoustic sounds.

"Standard" produces a conventional acoustic guitar sound.

"Jumbo" delivers the sound of an acoustic with a larger, more resonant body.

"Enhance" gives guitarists a brilliant, ultra-present sound to cut through in live band settings.

"Piezo" produces the bright sound of a piezo pickup.

"Top" knob adjust the effect's overall brilliance and harmonics.

"Body" adjusts the resonance of the simulated acoustic guitar body.

Level knob adjusts the overall level of the acoustic effect.

Individual outputs for effected and un-effected sound allow for the use of separate signal chains and amplifiers.

Boss 5-year warranty

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great effect...Don't ask it to BE and acoustic guitar!!!"

Sound: Before you think I'm crazy , let me state for the record , that this pedal does NOT replace your need for a true acoustic guitar! What it Does do is instantly give you a great simulation of and acoustic guitar from the electric guitar you have in your hands! Feature: enough settings to get a good sound from any electric. the enhance and piezo settings brighten up the treble from a muddy jazzbox humbucker. Or use the Jumbo setting fill out the bass from a strat or Tele's overbright single coils. Quality: I own 5 Boss pedals and they all have the same time tested design. no bad switches or broken wires, just reliable. Value: A bit expensive for a single stomp box but buy one , you'll love it so much , you'd pay double to get it back! Manufacturer Support: never needed it The Wow Factor: There is NO Sex Appeal in a little stomp box! Overall: There are better sounding simulators out there but they are designed to be used in studios and cost hundreds more.(great for recording) But they don't fit under your foot!

Style of Music: Country
