Boss AD-3 Acoustic Instrument Processor

Description

Boss AD-3 Acoustic Instrument Processor

Boss AD-3 Acoustic Instrument Processor pedal solves the problem of thin tone and feedback by giving guitarists a tone, reverb, chorus and Anti-Feedback control in a high-quality compact pedal. It has built-in foot-switchable 2x2 Chorus that provides a smooth effect which can be precisely adjusted using an onboard depth control, adding just the right amount of stereo. Boss AD-3 highlights onboard tone controls, aptly named Bottom and Top. The controls are more advanced from simple EQ knobs that work differently when boosted and cut. The Top knob boosts high-end brilliance or can be used to reduce the thin, dry sound character of most piezo and magnetic pickups.

Boss AD-3 has built-in Anti-Feedback control which can be manually set or set via footswitch to Auto. Also, this pedal offers the perfect tone-enhancing, feedback-eliminating solution. Boss AD-3 features an adjustable Input control for impedance matching to a variety of acoustic-electric pickup types. Plus, its Output section provides a choice between stereo balanced outputs for direct connection to a PA system, or a dedicated Guitar Amplifier output for plugging into a guitar amplifier. The Bottom knob tunes the low frequencies to add the desired amount of body resonance.
