The pickups built into some acoustics are used for recording (also direct), but rarely by themselves. It's not unusual to use 2 or 3 tracks to record an acoustic (2 mics + pup), then mix later for desired effect.]]> Live Sound gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-49128 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-49127 Sat, 20 Mar 2004 20:29:37 +0000 much better with an acoustic amp as compared to an electric amp.]]> Live Sound gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-49127 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-49126 Sat, 20 Mar 2004 01:55:54 +0000
Acoustic guitar amps are very similar to a PA. The amp and speakers are designed for a very pure undistorted signal.

I don't see why you couldn't play through it. I don't know if the speakers can handle distortion. Then again, I've played my guitar with effects and distortion pedals straight into my PA. Sounded and worked fine.]]> Live Sound Wes Inman https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-49126 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-280 Fri, 19 Mar 2004 23:44:30 +0000 Live Sound Ignar Hillström https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/accoustic-amp/#post-280
