All,
I kid you not. If interested you may wish to check out the Original post itself over at the the "unofficialacousticcontrolcorp" message board (yuku ) and give Vetchking a call. Great guy with a passion to succeed. I spoke with him myself a few weeks ago and he's certainly won my confidence. He is for real and might even share with the amazing story as to how this incredible bass amp is well on it's way back!. His phone number is in the post. It was posted last Wednesday.

How about the 360/361M (mini)? (with a 15" driver)
And does anyone know what the price point is on these?

I'm SO excited! If I wasn't set right now (Bassman 300+Sunn 2x15), this is EXACTLY where my money would be going. And who knows, I may have to get me one of the unpowered 361 cabs. 2x15+Folded 18"........mmmmmm....

Totally impractical in terms of size, sound, weight, and cost for me... but I'm glad those who want them can get them (assuming they are actually finally for sale.) |

$5,000 is what I heard (several months ago) for the 360/361, but that is the "Flagship" of the product line up....
There is a "smaller" version - the 360/361m (a 15" version) some various cabs (4X10, 2X10, and I "think" a 6X10) as well as a power amp or two...
Cheers!!
PS..Here's the "original thread..." NEW USA ACOUSTIC 360 AVAILABLE!!!

My apologies. I don't know where my head has been these days. I even replied to your thread too. Me Duh! Too much work, not enough playing of the bass, I guess.
Sorry about that.
Long live the New "acoustic" USA!!!
Play On!

Many swear this is not vaporware.
But why is there so little evidence? UFO phenomena?

Seriously though, they ARE being built and they ARE available for order. Now, can I give you an explanation as to WHY there is no Publicity? No Website? No reviews? No "product roll-out"? Sorry, no clue....
But then again, they seem to go about things from the "back to the front".....so, go figure....

If ACC were planning on cranking them out by the thousands from a Chinese sweat shop then it'd be a different matter altogether. But that's not their marketing/sales model for these units. |
