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. The CA10 compact amplifier delivers 10 watts of pure acoustic tone via its 1/4” input with its own gain control. Three bands of EQ, centered at critical frequencies, provide exceptional tone control and minimize feedback.
The Crate 8" woofer/piezo tweeter combination delivers smooth, pristine sound with outstanding projection and fidelity. Chorus with Rate control allows you to sweeten your sound, which you can listen to by yourself via the Headphones jack. A Power LED lets you know the CA10 is on—not that you'll need that when you hear the crystal clear tone coming from it.
