Acoustic Simulator on electric bass?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi all...

So I've been thinkin about buying a Acoustic Simulator like the Boss AC-2 or AC-3.
http://www.bossus.com/gear/productde...?ProductId=149
http://www.bossus.com/gear/productde...?ProductId=752

So the question goes; Has anyone ever tried this type of effect pedals on electric bass?
It COULD work out fairly useful (maybe for some Rock a Billy-stuff?), or then again it might turn out to be plain BS.

Keep on Rockin'...

I don't remember the thread, but someone here has one on their board. Maybe check the post your pedal board thread.

I've often wondered about using these myself, but more as a preamp. I don't think it will make your electric bass sound like an upright or an ABG if that is what you are after. I've also read on a recent thread that it adds a lot of hiss to your signal.

EDIT: Here Ya Go. Mr. Pickle has one on his board...(you may consider Private Messaging him). Here are the relevant posts from that thread. Enjoy!
