It is a great amp. It's just too {censored}ing loud, big, heavy. 2x12 combo, like 100 lbs easy. Big cab too, take up a lot of space in car. And its just too loud. Cleans just are too stiff. The ampeg gets nice and juicy and compressed but still clean at band volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dr.Pain-MD Posted September 10, 2010 Members Share Posted September 10, 2010 Originally Posted by cooki3monster Is that a bass amp? Probably a dumb question I know. The Acoustic 300 is a slave amp which is essentially a power amp with the capability to be chained/"slaved" with other power amps for easy control. So yes and no. Acoustic originally released it to power PA gear, but even back then there was not much distinction between guitar and bass gear (fits this amp). It kicks infinite amounts of ass, but Acoustic slaves are fairly rare. Look out for Sunn and Traynor slaves for a similar thing. The cab is neither here nor there and can be used with both guitar and bass assuming the proper speakers are in it (not the stock ones). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if you specifically want a slave/power amp, then I would suggest into looking at old ones like Acoustic's 200/300/400, Sunn's Alpha/Concert/Colliseum Slave or Traynor's PM series. For maximum doom, I would look into some "full" heads from these companies. I would seriously encourage you to try and find some vintage Acoustic heads (and cabs if you can!) like the 140/150b/150, 270, 450/470 or any other ones that you can find. They sound great, are loud as hell and have lots of tonal options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members .homewrecker. Posted September 10, 2010 Members Share Posted September 10, 2010 I've used an Acoustic 370/1 before on guitar, nothing like pushing your guitar though a 18" folded horn design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
