General

Roland's AC-40 is a compact stereo amplifier for acoustic guitar players and singer/songwriters. Due to its low weight it can easily be taken to gigs and thanks to its clean, powerful and natural sound you'll make quite an impression! The AC-40 is equipped with two channels, which means you can plug in an additional microphone or a second guitar.

Little Magic Box

Despite its moderate dimensions, the AC-40 offers everything you need, in any situation. You can easily carry it under your arm, taking it along to your gigs at the local pub, where you can use it to amplify your guitar and your vocals. The stereo effects add a professional touch to your sound, making for a well-rounded performance. Naturally, the AC-40 is equipped with Roland's renowned stereo chorus, as well as with a reverb effect. Both effects can be adjusted separately for each channel. This little magic box is fitted with a stereo output, which can also be used in mono mode, and which allows you to connect it to a mixer. That way you can use the AC-40 as a personal monitor on stage, while sending its natural and transparent sound to your audience.

Smart Functionality

The AC-40 is equipped with a practical anti-feedback function, which allows you to turn up the volume without running the risk of creating feedback. The anti-feedback functionality will react before any problems arise, allowing you to fully concentrate on your performance without worrying about unpleasant surprises. The Roland amplifier is fitted with an AUX input, allowing you to connect your MP3 player for background music or backing tracks. If you want to practise at home without bothering your flatmates or neighbours, you can simply connect a pair of headphones at the rear. Finally, a foot pedal can be connected to switch the chorus and reverb on and off.

Roland AC-40 Chorus Acoustic Guitar Amplifier
Wrote the following about Roland AC-40 Chorus Acoustic Guitar Amplifier
De Roland AC-40 versterker verbaasd mij. Hij is licht, klein maar wat een bereik. Laat je niet misleiden door het formaat want hiermee kan je goed uit de voeten bij kleinschalige optredens. De grotere broer AC60 is net iets groter en heeft iets meer opties maar de AC40 doet ook zeker zijn werk. Snelle levering door BAXshop. Wel jammer dat er geen tas bij zit ;)

Prima compact en lichtgewicht versterker. Past bij wijze van spreken 'in een boodschappentas'.
Klank is prachtig.
Chorus in twee standen mogelijk, beter zou zijn geweest als dit traploos in te stellen zou zijn.
