BOSS AC-3 Acoustic Simulator Effects Pedal

How many times have you been onstage or in the studio with your electric guitar, and wished that you’d brought an acoustic along? For musicians who travel light, hauling an extra guitar isn’t practical. The AC-3 gives electric guitarists an acoustic effect with a tap of the pedal.

Another of “Authentic BOSS” compact pedal line, the AC-3 features BOSS’ COSM Acoustic-Modeling technology, and is beautifully showcased in this small but powerful pedal, which simulates an acoustic guitar much more precisely and realistically than previous technology has allowed. Derived from BOSS top-of-the-line AD-8, the AC-3 pedal simulates the sound of an acoustic guitar with incredible precision.

Four simulation modes are provided: Standard, Jumbo, Enhanced and piezo-equipped; the latter supplies that famous “cut through the mix” direct piezo sound. Previous compact acoustic-guitar modeling-pedals were promising, but now the bar has been raised with the BOSS AC-3.
