"Finally--a Great Sounding Acoustic Electric Sound!"

If lost or stolen, I would definitely buy another one.
Sound
I've been searching high and low for a setup that will make a plugged-in acoustic sound acoustic--THIS IS IT! Sounds better than the onboard piezo/mic Fishman I had on my Rainsong. I use it on a non-electric Rainsong DR1100 with a Fishman passive humbucker soundhole pickup and I can get anything from sweet, warm rhythm sounds to crisp sounding finger picking without any harshness. This combo definitely sounds better than any piezo under saddle pickups I've ever heard ...wonder what the Mexico City guy had his hooked up to?
Features
Some reverb and/or chorus would make this a 12...
Ease of Use
Very straightforward...especially if you read the User's Guide!
Quality
Injection molded plastic top, metal case bottom. Definitely tough enough
Value
Definitely worth the price!
Manufacturer Support
Haven't had to use it.

"pro eq platinum acoustic preamp lots of value in a small box"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
you cant all ways trust what people say sometimes but my gut had a strong feeling when someone has over forty years of experience got to listen and just try it so I solved a big problem to equalize is a good thing for your sound and to eliminate feed back all in one little box not some over priced equipment especially when you want a pure jazz sound thanks for your advise I am very satisfied

"What a Platinum dissapointment!"

Overall: 1.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Sound
I payed a lot (like 275.00 or even more) for this. It had to be brought to Mexico City by a friend. First of all... it worked the way it was supposed to... it was not a lemon... it "is" very lame... you just can
Features
It included nothing but a 300 bucks lousy equalizer...
Quality
Looks sturdy but cheapo for the price... Unconfortable layout...
Value
No, no, no!...

good music to my ears, no matter the style you are doing...

"fishmen pro eq platinum acoustic preamp made my guitar and amp sound very proffesional"

Overall: 1 out of 5 stars

I needed to round out my classical guitar pick up trough a roland sixty watt amp until I found this at the last minuet before a gig the sound was harsh I tell you this pro eq smoothed the sound right out mellowed the highs tightened the bottom cleard the middle and eliminated feedback now if I could hook it up to my whife and for you guys who complain about feedback with your jazz boxes this will shut you up no need to stuff your box with foam try it you will sound and feel better
