zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Two input channels. Effects loop.

As Traynor's premier acoustic guitar amplifier, the twin channel Acoustic Master 100 delivers 100 watts of clean power through a pair of punchy 6.5 in. woofers and a crisp tweeter. The result is full and well-defined reproduction of acoustic nuances. The durable, lightweight (25lbs/11.5Kg) AM100 is uniquely versatile for standard combo upright or angled wedge stage monitor operation. Along with a sturdy curved metal front grille and corner protectors, the cabinet is constructed from high quality plywood and is dressed in blue/black carpet covering with a top mounted strap-handle.

Features
The clearly labeled controls are simple to operate yet provide exceptional flexibility. Channel 1 has a single 1/4 in. input with a volume control marked with recommended levels for active and passive pickups, a 3-band equalizer with +/- 15 dB of cut/boost and a highly effective, defeatable and variable notch filter. Channel 2, with 1/4 in. jack and XLR inputs, features a gain control and effects defeat switch and is designed to be used as a microphone input, as an auxiliary instrument channel, or for line-level input sources such as a CD player. The digital effects section has two banks of 16 digital effects (defeatable on channel 2), controlled by a master level control labeled to show wet and dry mix levels. Rounding out the AM100's ample feature set are clip LEDs for each channel as well as a rear-mounted EFX send/return loop, a balanced 1/4 in. line-out (pre-master/post-EQ/pre-EFX) and read more footswitch jacks.

Absolutely the best acoustic amp ever built! EVER!!!!I've tried em all, and no other can come close. If you can find one used, BUY IT!! Don't buy the Traynor version, I'm talking the Yorkville. I've tried Fishman, Fender, and I own a Carvin. They can't compare.
