After watching you and your wonderful, toneful and tuneful playing style, I decided to buy the AER 60/4 today for my Eastman T386 and Eastman AR372. You are very inspiring. Great video.
Lovely playing thanks for posting it's very informative. one question, is the amp better going through a PA system or for small venues is it better as a stand alone? I have a version 4 and have had mixed results going through a PA, sound engineers don't always know how to get a good sound from it.
@@gustavlundgren Thanks, I've never used, it as stand alone but will give it a go from now on. It should be loud enough for small venues, do you think?
@@JonnyAllenMusic AC33 is a great amp, but not really powerful enough for real gig situations. I tried one on a few gigs and really struggled to get enough volume.
Gustav, thank you for what I think is the best demo of this amp on RUclips. From your experience, this being such a high fidelity amp, would it work with a slightly (or more heavy even) overdriven sound coming into it? I play a combination of jazz and blues, and sometimes I like to use a pedal like the Boss Blues driver in front of the amp. Thanks in advance for your help!
@@gustavlundgren That’s excatly my worry. I have an Ibanez hollowbody and I know it will sound great through this amp clean, but having an overdriven input I am not sure about. Guess we’ll have to find out the hard/expensive way :)))
Beautiful tone, very descriptive review, thanks for uploading this video. May I know how you record it? What audio interface do you use? Logic pro or prootool.???
@@jasper_north AER Compact 60/4. Best acoustic amp I’ve ever played through. The Blackstar Sonnet 120 is also pretty amazing and 1/3 the price of the AER. But if you have the budget, get the AER.
Thank you for the comparison been searching for it for months ! Think i noticed a difference in the sound the AER version 4 seems somewhat brighter, maybe there was more treble knob or something anyway really interesting. Do you know if you if an overdrive on my acoustic through magnetic microphone Will damage the AER ? Seems there is plenty of harmonics information already and that an overdrive can sound good. Any thoughts ? Thank you
Thank you for the demo! I really like your sound. Do you think this amp would be suitable for solid body electric guitars as well? I have a Yamaha Revstar (it's got two humbuckers) and I'm looking for a clean tone. This seems like a nice practice amp + gigging / professional amp.
Amazing review!!! Have you tried a Henriksen (maybe the Forte) to compare the cleans with this AER? I would love to know your experience with these amps and if some of these stand out for better clean sound. Thanks and keep the good content!!!
I have tried one Henriksen. It was quite ok. The AER however is really built for acoustic guitars with piezo or condensers. And as you can hear in this video it sounds great even for electric guitars.
Hi Gustav: Thank you for the very nice demo! I have the same amp and a 335 plugged in directly. I'm having a hard time to replicate the soft/mellow tone you manage to produce. Can you share the amp/guitar settings you used when you did the demo? Matter of fact, your demo played a role when I decided to go for the AER Compact 60/4 :) Many thanks in advance!
@@gustavlundgren Yeah, I saw and couldn't believe it ;) My Ibanez As200 plugged in with the same settings sounds very different, a lot brighter, compared to your 335. There are probably several factors here. The amp version I have has the solid oak wood casing, which might account for some of the extra brightness... Thanks for your quick reply! I'll keep chasing your tone.

Are you happy with this one with your eastman?
Beautiful tone, beautiful playing...oh and the amp is pretty good too.
Lovely Playing. Well done. Also thinking of buying the AER 60/4
I just got one of these for my acoustic, I might even have to learn jazz after watching this!!!

@@ayobamidele sure!
Amazing playing man!
That's some great playing and sound!
I love your music and your tone Gustav
i want know your usual amp eq setting and
guitar volume knob and tone knob setting
thank you!
Thanks! EQ depending on amp, but usually quite 12 a clock. Volume max! Tone always max or bypassed.
@@gustavlundgren thank you for answer!!
my amp is compact 60
you mean treble/middle/bass all 12 clock?
beautiful sound
Great tone and Great playing 👌
great demo and playing
Gorgeous playing!
you play beautifully!
In this video di you use input button high or low with electric guitar?
What was the standard you were playing?
Great sound !
always loved the sound of those amps
Don't they have boomy bass? (too much bass). I'm using Gibson L-5, and I have the aer compact but mine have much bass I don't know why...
It sounds a tad boomy to me. I'm sure I read that the bass is pretty massive.
hi looking for my first amp question is how many effects can you have on any one time would be looking at a new mark 4 version
Thanks
One effect
Hi , my old amp before getting an AER was a Roland AC-33 , cracking little Amp worth checking them out
@@JonnyAllenMusic AC33 is a great amp, but not really powerful enough for real gig situations. I tried one on a few gigs and really struggled to get enough volume.
Nice touch

Thanks! That could definitely work. But the amp is really designed for acoustic guitars with piezo systems.

Hi is it possible to use an electric solid body guitar with?
Definitely
Ive just bought the tommy emanuel 60 4
Hello, great sound what are your settings on the amp and guitar?
Thank you
Rob
What do you think about the aer compact 60 can it handle a jazz quartet with drumer, bass, horn and guitar?
Definitely
Is this with using the mic in front
Yes
@@gustavlundgren Lovely sound, great playing . Could you please tell me what mic are you recording with and if the sound processed at all.
@@kevinrobins764 It looks like the Sennheiser e609. No pedals, just the reverb from the amp.
@@gustavlundgren Many thanks - very helpful. 👍
Beautiful tone, very descriptive review, thanks for uploading this video. May I know how you record it? What audio interface do you use? Logic pro or prootool.???
Logic through my motu track 16
Hi! What pedal/s did you use for your tone please?
Great Playin!!!! Sorry to ask, but WHICH SONG is this again? Thanx from Germany :-)
Maybe Smoke gets in your eyes? open.spotify.com/track/5yBfMCKVIyR5WgZghKp2GB?si=ca96b31d85384f09
@@gustavlundgren thank you very much!!!
What in your opinion is a good affordable amp to sing and play with? (Martin D18)
What price point do you consider to be affordable?
Yes
@@MikaelLewisify €1500

Nice sound Gustav! I am looking for an amp to use with a big band. Do you think a 60W amp will do the job? A bb makes a lot of noise .... 😉
Yes! You can go super loud with this one

Any thoughts ? Thank you
I think they sound pretty much the same. The nobs where exactly the same. You can definitely use overdrive. I do it all the time!
Hi, what strings do you have on your 335? Mine does not get this nice round jazz tone. Are they very thick flat wounds? Awesome playing by the way.
I use the Thomastik swing 0.12

If you’re looking for a clean sound the answer is yes.
@@gustavlundgren Thank you!
❤
did you plug the guitar straight in or are there any mods in the signal chain? thx for the review!
Straight
@@gustavlundgren beautiful sound💚🙏
Hello Gustav, will you review the Gibson ES-235. Have you tried this guitar?
No, I have never tried that model. Is it cool?
I need to learn how to play Jazz as good as you do
It’s an acoustic amp? Right? U simply plugging electric guitar? Thnxx brother ❤
Hi Gustav, awesome demo thanks! What mic are using on the amp? Do you use that same mic in a live setting?
This is a sennheiser e609 or 906. Those could definitely be used live. Cheap and great microphones.
Sound mesmerizing likes Tony Mottola.
Hey man what was the progression or sing you were playing 2mins- 4mins? Sounds real nice !
It’s the A part of “smoke gets in your eyes”.
@@gustavlundgren transposed to eflat? im trying to work a little on the changes you play. thanks!

Hello everyone, I am a really beginner regarding the guitar. Please tell what is the gander that he has just payed!
I think most people would consider this to be jazz.
@@MikaelLewisify Thanks!!!
Gustav are you a Lefty, or is the screen reversed?
You can read the logo AER .... so the screen is not reversed I think
I’m a lefty
a lot better than that bald guy above playing flight of the bumble bee
Learn how to play guitar
I don't like lefties
I enjoyed your musicality, but those amps sound stiff to me.
