A BOSS Acoustic DI Preamp Designed for the Stage, at the Top of the Range
Amplifying an electro-acoustic guitar often means choosing between practicality and naturalness: a piezo handles feedback well but can sound harsh and "pinched" in the upper midrange. The BOSS AD-10 was developed to solve this dilemma with a very "musician-friendly" approach: premium audio quality, correction tools truly adapted to acoustic instruments, and especially the Acoustic Resonance processing, designed to recreate the complex resonances of the body and strings that a bridge microphone does not always capture.
The result: a reliable nerve center for your acoustic pedalboard, which advantageously replaces a classic preamp, an external DI, and part of your effects, while keeping simple and direct foot control.
For Which Guitarists and Contexts?
The AD-10 is aimed at demanding acoustic guitarists, from intermediate to professional level, who play in concerts, churches, coffeehouse gigs, events, or studios. It excels whenever you need to output to a console via XLR, power a stage amp, or provide headphone monitoring, all while maintaining a rich and credible acoustic tone.
Style-wise, it covers a wide range: fingerstyle (fine dynamics), pop/folk (powerful strumming), chanson, country, and even more atmospheric textures thanks to the built-in effects. The 10 memories are ideal if you alternate between several guitars (dreadnought and nylon, for example) or have dedicated settings for each song.
