Amazon.com Product Description

The CA30 Taos compact acoustic amplifier delivers 30 watts RMS and incorporates two inputs, each with its own gain control. Three bands of equalization, with Crate's exclusive Contour control, provide exceptional tone control and minimize feedback. The polypropylene 8" woofer/dome tweeter combination delivers smooth, pristine sound with outstanding projection and fidelity.

The CA30 also features 8 of Crate's stunning DSP effects, including short and medium Slapback Delays, Echo, Chorus, Rotary Speaker, Chorus (with Hall Reverb), and two distinct Reverb modes. There's even a front panel Insert jack, so you can add your own effects, and a Line Out jack for chaining additional amplifiers.

Why is it so hard to amplify an acoustic guitar? By its very nature, an acoustic instrument requires lots of feedback control, especially when it's asked to compete with drums and a stage full of rockers. And although most amps can effectively control feedback, they often do so by severely sacrificing tone for volume.

Our CA Series amps give you all the tone and features necessary to put your acoustic sound on top of the mix, whether you're soloing at the Opry or strummin' at the coffeehouse. With its unparalleled balance of clarity, power, natural tone, and intuitive controls, the Crate Acoustic Series remains our most widely endorsed amp line. Try one and you'll see why.

Great little amp - Jim "Alkali", May 10, 2008

I bought this amp 3 months ago and have played it in jams as well as daily practice sessions. It works beautifully with my acoustic/electric Ibanez. The 30W power is just right for small gigs and jams. It gives great sound at lower settings as well as when I crank it up. The tilt-back feature is a simple device and idea that projects the sound to the audience perfectly. It is built like a tank. The reverb and setting knobs on it are a bit crowded but once you get it set, you'll not be adjusting it anyway. The one feature that persuaded me to buy this amp, besides its affordability, great looks and features,is that it is made right here in the USA.
