Electro Acoustic Guitars

Most electro acoustic guitars look just like their regular acoustic cousins. However, they come equipped with special internal electronics that allow you to amplify them through PA systems or dedicated acoustic amps. This makes electro acoustics popular among singer-songwriters and performers, as it means that they can plug them straight in at gigs with a level and feedback-free acoustic sound. No need to mess around with microphones anymore!

The great thing about modern electro acoustic guitars is that their pickups and preamps are able to capture their “unplugged” sound with great conviction. This means that their natural voice and character still shines through when amplified, without sounding overly-sterile. High-end electro acoustics will come with more sophisticated electronics, featuring control panels sporting EQ dials and switches for crafting the perfect tone.
