Compact 60/4

AER

collapse expand iconDescription

The AER Compact 60/4 60W 1x8 acoustic guitar combo amplifier delivers professional quality in a compact, travel-friendly package. Perfect for singer-songwriters and acoustic guitarists who demand outstanding reproduction of their instrument, the Compact 60/4 features 60 watts of power through an 8" speaker to fill small- to mid-sized venues. Its two-channel design handles piezo pickups, microphones and line-level signals with equal aplomb. Subtly dynamically controlled, this amp ensures reliability at high volumes despite its diminutive size. For over 20 years, the Compact 60 has been an industry standard for amplifying acoustic guitars and vocals on stage and in the studio.

Post-Effects D.I. Out for Studio Use

New to the Compact 60/4, the post-effects D.I. out sends your signal direct to recording equipment or a mixing board, complete with the amp's digital effects. Choose between pre- and post-effects signals to suit your needs. An auxiliary input also allows you to connect MP3 players, drum machines and more.

Portability Without Compromise

The Compact 60/4 is a breeze to transport to gigs. Despite its compact size, the Compact 60/4 refuses to compromise on tone, power or features. Dynamic control and a custom-designed 8" speaker provide a full, rich sound with clear highs, warm mids and substantial low end.

Simple, Intuitive Controls

Straightforward controls make dialing in your perfect tone a snap. Choose between natural and bright EQ voicings and blend between the two channels. Digital reverb, delay and chorus effects provide ambiance and depth, with tap tempo on the delay. Master volume, gain and contour controls round out the simple but powerful set of tools at your fingertips.

    Wasn't easy pulling the trigger on this amp due to its high cost, but I'm so glad I did. I absolutely love the sound and the quality.

  • I have 3 of these amps.

    Best acoustic amp anywhere. Doesnt sound like an amp, sounds like a guitar! As well, the voice reproduction is as amazing. I use these in a solo gig, as well as in a band, using additional amps for monitors. Traveling? it's 'carry on' luggage, fits in the overhead.

  • I would by this again.

    I purchased the AER for its quality. Looked at all the other acoustic amps and they sounded cheap with very little depth of sound. As soon I played one note I knew I had found what I was looking for. Before you purchase another acoustic amp play this one and you will know what I am talking about!

  • Using a pair in stereo for vocals and guitar. Amazing.

    Amazing sound clarity and note defoliation.. I'm using in stereo either clean or with pedals for low-gain overdrive, delay and reverb. Best solution I've found. Vocals sound great with a split signal to each aer.

    Is the amp case included with the purchase? And how is this version compared with its predecessor 60/3?

    the amp does not come with the case, and as far as the amp goes it's almost identical to the 60/3 just with upgraded electronics and they've also shed some weight off of it making it easier to carry.
