Why an Acoustic-Electric Needs the Right Amp

If you've ever plugged your acoustic-electric guitar into a regular electric guitar amp and wondered why it sounded thin, boxy, or just "off," the amp is the problem, not your guitar. Acoustic-electrics need an amp built to reproduce the natural, full-bodied tone of the instrument rather than colour it the way electric guitar amps are designed to.

That's why we keep a dedicated range of NUX Acoustic amps in store. They're built specifically for acoustic-electric and acoustic-bass instruments, giving you clean, natural amplification without losing the warmth of your guitar's true sound. Whether you're playing a small gig, an open mic, or just want to fill a bigger room at home, the right acoustic amp makes a noticeable difference.
A couple of things worth checking when you're shopping for one: look for an amp with acoustic-specific voicing (not just a "clean channel" on an electric amp), and a feedback notch filter, which lets you turn up the volume on stage without the dreaded howl of feedback.
Pop into the shop at 55, Blanche Huber Street, Sliema and we'll help you find the right amp for your guitar. www.sun-sounds.com
