13 best effects for acoustic guitars

Effects for acoustic guitars, often referred to as acoustic guitar pedals or processors, are devices used to modify the sound of an acoustic guitar. While acoustic guitars are known for their natural, unamplified sound, these effects can enhance and shape the guitar's tone in various ways.Some common effects for acoustic guitars include:

  1. Reverb: Reverb pedals add a sense of space and depth to the guitar's sound, simulating the acoustics of different environments. It can make your acoustic guitar sound like it's played in a large hall, a small room, or outdoors.

  2. Delay: Delay pedals create echoes of your guitar's sound, adding a unique rhythmic or atmospheric quality to your playing. It can be used subtly for a touch of ambiance or more prominently for a pronounced effect.

  3. Chorus: Chorus pedals create a shimmering, chorus-like effect by doubling and slightly detuning the guitar's signal. This effect adds richness and depth to your sound, often used in clean or arpeggiated playing.

  4. Compressor: Compressor pedals even out the dynamics of your guitar, helping to maintain consistent volume levels. They can enhance sustain and bring out subtle nuances in your playing.

  5. EQ (Equalizer): EQ pedals allow you to shape the tonal characteristics of your acoustic guitar by adjusting bass, midrange, and treble frequencies. This can help tailor your sound to different playing environments or preferences.

  6. Tuner: While not an effect per se, a tuner pedal is a valuable addition to any guitarist's setup for ensuring accurate tuning during performances.

  7. Acoustic Preamp/DI: Some acoustic guitars are equipped with pickups, and a preamp/DI pedal is essential for shaping and amplifying the acoustic signal before it's sent to a PA system or amplifier.

  8. Looper: Looper pedals enable you to record and play back segments of your acoustic guitar playing, allowing you to create layered arrangements or practice along with yourself.

It's important to note that not all effects designed for electric guitars are suitable for acoustic guitars, as they may not complement the natural acoustic sound. Acoustic-specific effects are designed to preserve the instrument's inherent qualities while adding creative enhancements.

Musicians often experiment with different combinations of these effects to achieve their desired acoustic guitar sound, and the choice of effects depends on the musical style and personal preferences of the guitarist.

Product description

WHAT IS IT? HOW DOES IT WORK? WHAT ELSE? The ToneWoodAmp allows you to play acoustic guitar with different effects, UNPLUGGED - with the effects emanating organically from the guitar''s sound hole and the body itself. Similar to the way the strings excite the top of the guitar to produce sound, ToneWoodAmp excites the back of the instrument, producing sound waves of effects such as reverb, echo, delay, tremolo and more, which interact with the natural sound of the guitar itself. The ToneWoodAmp is also a multi-effect processor which you can connect with any Amp/PA system and is also an iDevice interface allowing you to experiment with audio and MIDI apps. OVERVIEW AMAZING Amp-less Acoustic ExperienceThe ToneWoodAmp provides the newest and most unique acoustic guitar playing experience without the need for an amplifier!

DOUBLE As a Multi-Effect ProcessorThe ToneWoodAmp can be used also as a multi-effect processor. In a situation where you need to amplify your guitar, you can connect the output jack to your amp or P.A. system and use the “blend" mode to dial the amount of guitar/effect you want to send out. TRIPLES as an iDevice interfaceIf you desire to experiment with more effects and other cool tools, you can use your ToneWoodAmp with an iDevice and try your favorite apps including guitar effects, MIDI instruments and much more! (require an add-on iDevice adapter cable). WORKS With Any Acoustic GuitarYou can install the ToneWoodAmp on any Electric and non-electric* flat or (slightly) arched-back acoustic guitar, steel and nylon strings, all can work with the ToneWoodAmp.

User questions & answers

Question: Why do you sell it for 539 when can buy it for 249 with free shipping directly from tonewood
Answer: But from tonewood direct or find the Amazon ad that closely related to the price you are used to seeing. I suspect some folks sell it for more on here because there is no wait to build it
Question: My guitar is a semi acoustic but the circuitry needs fixing... does that mean this wont work
Answer: You absolutely need the circuitry to be repaired.... also... if I’m not mistaken your guitar is a semi hollow body electric...and unless there is a pre-amp... I don’t believe it will work in your guitar... the guitars we see in the ads for this product are all acoustic electric with batteries that drive their electronics...
Question: can this be installed on a breedlove Pursuit Concert guitar
Answer: TWA will work on the Breedlove Pursuit Concert. Breedlove does install a bridge truss in all of their guitars, so it may require navigating around the bridge truss to mount the X-Brace and may require offsetting the TWA from the centerline. This is absolutely acceptable and won't cause any issue with operation.
Question: does it come with the x brace
Answer: It comes with one X-brace. The nice thing is that you can separately purchase additional X-braces if you have multiple acoustic guitars for which you'd like to use the Tonewood amp.

K&K Pure Mini Acoustic Guitar Pickup

K&K Sound

Based on 674 reviews Check latest price

Product description

The Pure Mini is a transducer-only system. No battery, no onboard electronics, just the pure pickups. Don't be fooled by the sound of some competitors' "thin sounding" passive systems. The Pure Systems are definitely different. They sound full and rich and have sufficient output to drive most amps and PA systems directly, without a preamp! Advantages of the Pure Guitar System The special Pure surface transducers transmit a significant portion of the soundboard because they are not as close to the strings as an under-saddle pickup. Each of the 3 transducers is designed to pick up a specific string pair, but also "listens" to the adjacent area around the bridge. The Pure pickups are not under pressure and therefore do NOT sound percussive or harsh. The Pure System reproduces all strings nicely balanced, a known problem with under-saddle pickups. The Pure System sounds great just in passive mode! Unlike under-saddle pickups which passively can sound thin and trebley, the passive PURE system puts out a nicely balanced, warm, full range signal. Feedback Resistance How safe is the Pure System with feedback? Due to the Pure System's location on the bridge plate under the bridge, feedback resistance is comparable to under-saddle transducers. Technically, a pickup installed in or on the bridge is a lot less likely to feedback than one which is attached to the open sound board. The 1/8" thin sound board can act like a diaphragm and vibrate along with loud sound-signals from speaker cabinets. This is the kind of feedback you experience on an acoustic guitar. The thicker bridge area is a lot harder to be set into vibration from an outside source simply because of its mass. In our tests with both, steel string and classic guitars equipped with an under-saddle pickup plus the Pure System, we were able to achieve about the same gain-before-feedback with both systems.

  • Three Transducer Pickup System for Steel String Guitars
  • Includes 1/4" Endpin Jack
  • Pre-wired, No Soldering Required
  • High Output - No Battery Required!

User questions & answers

Question: Would this work on a three string mountain dulcimer
Answer: If you are building a fulcimer, I think so, otherwise I don't know how you would install it. They are mounted under the bridge plate ( superglued). UNLESS you are building the instrument, I don't know how you would install it. You also have to drill the jack mount to the end of the dulcimer. I own a 4 string dulcimer and there is no way to install.
Question: I removed a k&k, one of the super glued heads was ruined. can i get good response with 2 heads only? maybe on a small guitar of uke
Answer: You still should get sound. I am not sure how good it will be. I have not had any experience with this.
Question: Is this a good option for a big guitar such as a Martin HD28V? I am under the impression that this is for smaller guitars
Answer: No, it will work fine in your HD28V - I put one in an HD28 and it sounded great. The mini captures the true essence of your guitar and every one I've installed (mostly in my own guitars), has sounded full and balanced.
Question: How do you install this
Answer: It is installed by applying superglue to the pick ups and gluein them to the bridge plate inside the guitar. It comes with a set up jig and some putty to make sure everything is aligned properly. An average do it yourselfer should be able to accomplish this project, but a luthier would probably do it for around $50. They do sound great by the way in my custom 28.

User questions & answers

Question: Does the usb port mean it has interface capabilities (can i record with it without an audio interface to pc
Answer: The PC recognizes the USB connection as a MIDI interface, which can be used to switch between patches.
Question: Can you delete only the previous loop that you recorded instead of the whole loop
Answer: No you can not delete part of a loop. In some other loopers you can undo one or more previous loops, but with the G1on you can not. When you delete a loop that was made on top of a a rhythm loop all the loops get deleted. It kind of sucks! This is about the only fault I can find w/ the G1on.
Question: I just bought a digitech-360 and found out i can't use the looper with the drum machine.. can you use the drums with the looper on this unit
Answer: Yes you can select a drum pattern and start playing it, then switch to looper mode and record while playing to the drum sounds. The drum sounds don't get recorded though, but you can play to the beat unlike the digitech 360.
Question: whats the difference between this and spending hundreds on different pedals
Answer: Lol! A lot, and not that much. This makes for an excellent practice pedal/tone lab. It's perfect for trying out different sounds and pedal combos and learning about basic signal path for FX. Some people even gig with this unit, though the G3X and G5X are considered more "Pro. Grade" though they have basically the same FX engine. Picking, buying, and building your own custom boutique pedal board is also rewarding and can provide some more unique and better quality FX... But you can literally spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars. Plus you'll need to try out the different pedals and build out a board. But individual pedals does give you flexibility DURING a performance. Note that the G1Xon has only two stomps and a wah. (Look at the manual, it's more complicated than that.) But basically (tl:dr) if you already know what sounds you want and you're a professional, spend hundreds on different pedals. If you want to experiment with different tone/FX and are primarily rehearsing and doing house of worship & coffee houses, buy the G1Xon.

User questions & answers

Question: Are the XLR output jacks on the back male or female
Answer: It adjusts from 8' to 20'
Question: What is the footswitch jack for? Probably a footswitch (ha ha), but to do what exactly
Answer: Limitless...with the adjustability of the rotating heads and the mounting arms. Each mounting situation will be different and will require your own creativity and fabrication skills to bolt, weld, clamp, etc... your project to suit your need.
Question: I'm considering the zoom ac-3 or the boss ad-10 (same price range). any comparisons or recommendations
Answer: 40 lb, 200 lb - I don't know why people give wrong answers to simple questions. I weighed the assembled crane on a digital scale and it weighs 70 lbs. That means it's difficult but not impossible for one strong person to lift and install it.
Question: Does this come with an AC adaptor cord included
Answer: I received this today. I slid it into the receiver hitch on my truck and assembled it. This thing must weigh 100LBS. I'm 77 and this thing feels like it weights 200 LBS. So I will need someone to help me put it in and take it out of the receiver hitch. You should be able to put it in your receiver hitch and drive it to your wood chopping area and drive it back home then take it out of the receiver hitch. I'm presuming we all have 4X4's.

User questions & answers

Question: Is the yamaha fs-ta concert all solid wood construction
Answer: Solid spruce top, laminate sides and back. Sounds pretty good. I have this guitar and use it for "taking places" that I don't want to take my more expensive guitars to.
Question: Does the pickup still work without a battery
Answer: Since a standard 1/4" cable isn't powered, the guitar still needs the battery - the chorus and reverb will work through the PA or amp; so there's no need for extra effects. I add delay through my VOX amp.
Question: Will you adjust the fingerboard of guitar before delivery
Answer: My guitar came preset. I changed the strings to 11’s flatwound and did do some neck adjustment myself.
Question: Does a gig bag come with the ls-ta concert? everywhere else it comes with a gig bag at the same price. but amazon says nothing about it
Answer: I know it does not say anything about it but yes I did receive one when I ordered it in February. There is no gig bag with the FSTA even when you buy it from a big box guitar store. Enjoy the LSTA as it is well worth it, I just was playing mine! I got it at a good price too!

Product features

Actuator

An actuator installed on the inner surface of the guitar back vibrates in response to the vibrations of the strings. The vibrations of the actuator are then conveyed to the body of the guitar and to the air in and around the guitar body, generating authentic reverb and chorus sounds from inside the body.

Simple Controls

Three simple knobs let you adjust the amount of effects and the line out volume level. Keeping the controls small minimizes the area of the holes in the body material, which reduces acoustic sound loss.

(A) Chorus Control

(B) Reverb Control (Room/Hall)

(C) TA Switch/Line Out Volume Control

* Pressing the TA Switch for longer than 0.3 seconds activates the TA function.

* When a cable is connected to the line out jack, the line out volume can be adjusted by rotating knob (C).

* The reverb type switches from Room to Hall around the 12:00 position.

Battery Box

The battery box is integrated into the end-pin jack, which requires fewer holes in the body, thus reducing acoustic sound loss. Connect the cable from the jack to a PA or amp to use as an acoustic-electric guitar.

Question: Couldn't the same "effect" be had with an equalizer pedal? Would this replace an equalizer
Answer: Hello. Thank you for the question. This product can be connected to a power source, but does not include an adapter and is sold separately. It can also be used with batteries. I hope you find it helpful. Thank you. With sincerity.
Question: When is this going to be available
Answer: I have a T5z and have used the AC-3 on solid body electric guitar with very acceptable results. However, not together. I discovered the T5 guitar voicings are much better suited for an acoustic amp (IMHO). Almost traded the T5 off before trying it out on acoustic (voiced) amplifiers. Although the T5 is technically an “electric guitar”, I believe it sounds better through an acoustic amp. Give it a try!
Question: Does the bodyrez work with a single coil magnetic sound hole pickup
Answer: Yes it works great on 9v just make sure you unplug your guitar when not using it or it will drain the battery
Question: How it's work with a nylon guitar like godin multiac
Answer: The output jacks are male so you will need a female XLR connector.

Every time you plug in, you’ll experience full, punchy tone and ultra-clean broadband frequency response with no uninspiring harshness or boxiness. Precision cabinet construction further enhances definition and clarity, eliminating unwanted resonances and providing maximum projection on stage.

Feedback Fighters

Feedback is a common problem for acoustic stage performers, particularly the rumbling, low-frequency type produced by acoustic/electric guitars. With quick-access controls, the Acoustic Singer Live LT gives you the tools to tame it quickly and easily. The phase switch on the guitar channel provides your first line of defense if you hear boomy resonances from your instrument. The Anti-Feedback knob goes even further, allowing you to engage a notch filter to isolate the offending frequency and remove it completely.

Connect and Control

The Acoustic Singer Live LT’s rear panel is well stocked for your interfacing needs. There’s an XLR DI output to connect to a house PA, and an aux input with level control for playing backing music from your smartphone or another device. A USB jack offers a computer connection to a DAW, while the Rec/Phones jack provides a standard ¼-inch stereo connection for quiet practice sessions or recording to portable devices. It’s also possible to control guitar and vocal effects via optional footswitches.

User questions & answers

Question: Is this for boosting the volume on a way too quiet passive acoustic guitar pickup
Answer: Sure you can . it will work
Question: I am looking for something to boost the signal for a ukulele passive pickup, would this work as a preamp
Answer: There may be a couple reasons: 1) In some rare cases, the guitar’s active electronics are wired with inverse polarity. In this scenario, the transmitter's electronics can go into a protection mode that keeps the system from being functional. 2) Because active pickups usually deliver a higher signal voltage range, you can notice a difference in the sound of the pickup depending on what devices you send the signal through before it goes into your amp. 3) It’s not the active electronics that causes the interference on the transmitter. It’s the transmitter that causes (poorly shielded) active electronics. A short cable which increases the distance of the transmitter will solve this problem in most cases. Hope this helps.
Question: Can i plug and electric guitar into this pedal
Answer: The signal latency is about 6ms~12ms
Question: Use this for Harmonica? Thinking that anti-feedback could be useful in quelling the squeel ones gets from distortion pedals
Answer: No, it's different than that. Also, this is to help an inexpensive guitar sound better. The better the guitar, the less this works to benefit. If you have a $300 (new) guitar, it's a great pedal and you'll love it. If you have a $800 guitar, still worthwhile. If you have a $1500 or better guitar... you probably won't get much out of it.
