About Acoustic Guitar Pedals

Acoustic guitar pedals are voiced for the amplified acoustic signal from a piezo pickup, soundhole pickup or microphone, rather than an electric guitar. The heart of most acoustic rigs is a preamp and DI pedal: it boosts and EQs the pickup signal, and sends a balanced XLR output straight to a PA or audio interface. Many models add phase switches or notch filters to tame feedback on stage. Acoustic-voiced reverb, chorus and delay pedals then add space and depth without colouring the natural tone.

The range runs from professional preamps like the Fishman Platinum Pro EQ, LR Baggs Para DI and Radial Tonebone AC-Driver to affordable options like the JOYO AD-2 and MOEN's compact acoustic chorus, delay and reverb pedals. Zoom's A1 Four processors bundle acoustic effects and amp simulation into one unit, while the NUX Optima Air and JOYO Wooden Sound simulate acoustic tones from an electric guitar. Singer-songwriters building songs live can add a looper pedal for on-stage layering. Pair your pedal with an acoustic guitar pickup, browse DI boxes for a dedicated direct box, or explore multi-effects pedals and the full guitar pedals range.

Acoustic Guitar Pedal FAQs

What does an acoustic preamp pedal do?

It strengthens and shapes the weak signal from your acoustic pickup before it reaches a PA, amp or interface. Typical controls include EQ, volume boost and feedback-fighting tools like phase and notch filters, so your guitar sounds natural at stage volume.

Do I need a DI box for acoustic guitar?

If you plug straight into a PA or mixing desk, yes, you need a DI signal. Most acoustic preamp pedals, including the Fishman Platinum Pro EQ and LR Baggs Para DI, have a balanced XLR DI output built in, so a separate DI box is often unnecessary.

Can I use regular guitar pedals with an acoustic guitar?

You can, but pedals voiced for electric guitar can sound harsh or unnatural on a piezo pickup. Acoustic-voiced pedals are tuned to preserve the instrument's natural character, which is why dedicated acoustic reverb, chorus and delay models exist.
