How many times have you regretted not taking acoustic guitar on stage or in the studio? If you like to travel light, an additional guitar can be a hassle. Take the BOSS AC-3 instead! This new pedal operates COSM® modeling technology to transform any electric guitar into beautiful acoustic guitars.
Magic pedal
The BOSS COSM Acoustic Modeling technology is beautifully exploited by the small pedal oh so powerful to simulate an acoustic guitar with stunning realism. Derived from the seed BOSS AD-8, the AC-3 reproduces the sound of an acoustic guitar with incredible precision. You have a choice of four simulation modes: Standard, Jumbo, Enhanced, and Piezo; it simulates the famous its direct piezo sensor, famous among all. The promises made by previous acoustic guitar modeling pedals are finally held by the AC-3!

Refined Modeling
The "Top" controls and "Body" allow you to fine-tune the characteristics of the four acoustic models. Some commands are enough towers to offer the acoustic guitar of your dreams.

Integrated Reverb
Confer more depth and softness to your sound with digital reverb AC-3. (You will notice and you have two pedals in one!).

Flexibility in the output
There are two types of outputs: one lets you connect the AC-3 to a standard guitar amp and the other for direct entry PA, recorder or acoustic amp such as Roland AC -60.
