Am I correct in assuming that with pedal, I can plug my acoustic into it then my amp, and get an acoustic amp sound? Correct me if I am wrong. thanks

Not sure, I think it's intended for use through an acoustic amp with an acoustic guitar, it's just an EQ/FX unit.

I used to have one of these I think. (orangish yellow in color, jumbo, piezo settings, etc.) They are, IMHO a piece of junk. They don't help a good acoustic amp out, and they are overpriced. Boss pedals are generally good especially for their price point, but this is a pedal that really dissapointed me. If you want really good acoustic tone, try the L.R. Baggs ParaAcoustic DI box. I sold my amp when I got one because as long as you have monitors, you don't need an amp. If anyone else has these, back me up. They're the best thing for acoustic electric guitars since strings!
