AC 49 BASS

There are acoustic basses and then there’s the AC 49.

This one is in its standard Rosewood spec. (see  standard guitars page)

 

The AC was conceived to work as an acoustic bass without having to plug in to get anything worthwhile out of them. As is the case with so many A.B’s. The bracing design is very different, and it’s this that’s made the AC sound so good !! 

TRY IT AND HEAR FOR YOURSELF !
