This USA-made tank of an amp is so practical for bands on the road: it can be run on batteries for up to 8 hours and can be charged in your car. It also packs several features such as 16 Integrated effects, Bluetooth, FX loop, and 100 watts of power. More spec on the product page.
Audio Sprockets ToneDexter Acoustic Preamp
Not your traditional amp, the ToneDexter is designed for instruments with a piezo pickup by helping to restore the sound of your guitar’s body. ToneDexter stores “WaveMaps” from your (sonorous, resonant and natural) microphone sound, which is then recalled when only the pickup is used. This data can be stored (on SD card) with different microphones and positions for each of your instruments. Extremely practical and insanely compact (only 160 x 150 x 58 mm)!
Don’t settle for less, we all love the natural sound of an acoustic guitar, now you can achieve it. What do you think of our Top 5 list? Would you add or remove any products? Let us know in the comments.

Hey there,
I would add the Marshall AS100d.
Its a superb amp with massive sound and durability and I just love it. I’m a singer/guitarplayer and use this amp for my solo gigs for almost 3 years now and I’m very satisfied. It covers small venues like coffeshops, restaurants and pubs very well.
The only con is its toooooo heavy and uncomfortable to carry longer distances and the leatherhandle busts quickly, so I took it to a shoemaker to make a new, stronger one.
Nevertheless I would recommend this amp with all of my heart!

I have the Acus 6t and with the phono input it means me and my singing partner can plug in 2mics and 2 guitars and then use the direct out to feed into our p.a. The sound is fantastic. I cannot believe there is a better acoustic amp out there
Jeff Warwick says:
I used a Marshall AS100D for years then I tried the ACUS. Best acoustic sound ever. However, three total meltdowns with three different ACUS amps soon had me scuttling back to the Marshall. The handles are awful things made from cardboard. I fixed mine with a leather dog collar. If you think it’s too heavy you need to move up to 3 weetabix…
