Author: I am looking at acoustic-electric guitars as an alternative for an electric guitar… but, i have been reading that acoustic-electric does not mean it will sound like an electric guitar…. so, is there any way i can make an acoustic electric sound like an electric… and, if so, would i use an acoustic amp or an electric amp
If you want an electric guitar sound from an acoustic then you must use an amplifier that’s geared for the electric, not an acoustic amplifier. Simply plug in, adjust your tone and volume, and wail away.
Posted in acoustic amps
thats all up to the amp. Either way in my opinion, It’ll sound electric unless its from the guitar itself. acoustic amps are for those guitars, and they preserve some of the warmth and feel of the sound
