Hello
Been a member for a while but this is my first thread and post and I
am tapping on your expertise on your recommendations on acoustic amp.
I am looking for one that has the most effects between $300 to $500 range;l
especially the chorus effect.
The only one I had checked out was the Fender acoustasonic Junior DSP,
sound pretty good but without DI to my Yamaha Compass acoustic guitar.
Ii will also be used to a Takamine Jumbo too.
oh I play mostly worship songs with cut and regular capo.
Your suggestions is greatly appreciated.
thanks

More power is definatley better than not enough when it comes to acoustic amps.
You could also look at the California Blonde and Trayner acoustic amps.

I have heard good things about Roland Amps..
I have an Ibanez acoustic amp and would never ever buy one again. I got it used and the ole "you get what you pay for" applies

ya, I looked and tested the roland ac60, the tone/sound is true acoustic, Rland just came out with the AC90, selling for $999, the ac60 is $499.
I am still shopping around, not a top priority but feedback from this site will welcome.
What are you acoustic guitarist using for acoustic amp?
TIA

That is a tough price range to get a decent amp. You may want to consider used.
Ultrasound make a very nice small acoustic amp. The next step up is quite a bit more expensive.
I prefer using a powered PA speaker, or two, depending on the size of room and venue.

Agreed, Ultrasound makes a great amp. AER, and Schertler are awesome but more money but well worth the extra $$ IMHO

I too play regularily at church. About a year ago I purchased the
Marshall AS50D. I looked at and tried, the Ibanez, Crate and Fender acoustic amps in the price range you mentioned and i surprised myself that I settled on the Marshall. I paid $395 at LA Music. For the price you should have a good look at it. It does have chorus (which i never use) and reverb which i really enjoy. Overall I am very pleased with it and it seems to be holding up fairly well considering it gets moved around a fair bit. Hope this helps. I am playing a yamaha country jumbo with a stock bridge pickup (nothing special but I like the way it sounds). Let me know if you have any other questions regarding the amp. Good Luck.
Hi
Look no further! I have tried them all including AER, Peavey, Fender etc.. Genz Benz get it! Check it out!
Cheers!
