I just ordered an electric guitar and have an acoustic amplifier, will it work on my electric guitar?
Do I need to get a new amplifier that is for electric guitars or can i use the acoustic amplifier?
admin answers:
It will work fine, just wont be as effiecient as an electric amp.
I have a portable amp that was for my acoustics but i use it for all my guitars and bass if i go out anywhere.
There really isnt such thing as an acoustic amp, amps are amps. The only way to define acoustic and electric is if it has a distortion switch or gain knob.

What is the device called that is used to plug a regular acoustic guitar into an amplifier?
Hey, i’ve noticed a few of my favorite musicians that play acoustic guitar live are able to amplify their REGULAR acoustic guitars by plugging a little device into the amp. The little device slides under the strings over the tone hole on the body of the guitar
what is it called??????
admin answers:
It’s called a “pickup”
It’s the same idea as an electric guitar, except for acoustic guitars. They are not very expensive, but depending on what kind you get you may want to pay someone to install it.
Here’s a site, or you can just google “acoustic guitar pickups”

GUITAR: Where do I put the amplifier on my acoustic guitar?
Is it the tiny hole with a nut screw at the lower body side of my acoustic? Also, what kind of a cable will be used and for what kind of an amp?
admin answers:
The cable will probably come with the amp.
As far as the amp, get the best one you can find if you entertain.
Or just get a cheap one if you are just messing around.
You might be able to find one in a Pawn Shop.
That would be cheaper than in a regular store.

Using an acoustic guitar amplifier as a computer/desktop speaker?
It is an http://www.guitarcenter.com/Acoustic-AG30-30W-1×8-Acoustic-Guitar-Combo-Amp-104839055-i1425156.gc amp.
I run it straight out from my computer’s soundcard into the direct in for the amp using a 1/8” male to male connector.This is NOT the guitar input, it is a separate AUX in port. I was wondering if this is better than getting a separate speaker system. (keep in mind that this puppy can get pretty loud if she wants to) I don’t have a whole lot of money to burn, since I’m a student, but I enjoy music, and am an audiophile. I was wondering if there would be a significant improvement that would be worth spending extra if I were to purchase a separate speaker system. To my ear, it sounds fine, But maybe I’m missing out on some of the sounds? perhaps someone bearing technical knowledge of acoustic guitar amplifiers would know better? lemme know if I’m getting quality sound, or if it’s just garbage!
(BTW the guitar amp ad says that it’s designed to plug in an ipod or some other mp3 device so you can play along with it!)
admin answers:
The one drawback is that the amp is MONO not STEREO because it is only one speaker. A normal set of two computer speakers will be stereo. Other than that, if you are happy with it then stick with it.

Can an Acoustic Guitar with a port for connectin it to an amplifier, be connected to a computer?
I have an acoustic guitar, and it has a port for it to be connected to an amplifier. I want to know is there any such socket which could help me connect my guitar to the midi port of my computer.
Many Thnks.
admin answers:
Are you looking to get actual midi signals or just straight guitar tone? I don’t do a lot of midi music but if that’s what you need then I believe you will need some sort of converter from audio signal to midi.
If you are just looking to record the sound of the guitar I would recommend that you do not just plug your guitar into your PC. In my experience, this will usually sound BAD.
I often use the TonePort UX1 made by Line6 to connect my guitar to my computer. You plug your guitar cable into this device and then plug the TonePort into the USB port on your computer.
It comes with software that does a nice job of simulating a bunch of different amps and effects pedals. Also comes with good recording and editing software. I believe they run around $120. For everything you get you can’t beat the price.
Good luck,
Brian
