AER Alpha 40W acoustic combo

The great new low-cost model from AER

For many years now AER has been the first choice in acoustic amplification for most players in the know.

If you want clean, accurate reproduction of your instrument’s voice without having to drag around a big heavy cabinet, this is the one for you - in fact those jolly clever chaps at AER will even include a deluxe flight bag.

Forget the shrill, hard sound of the competition and get something that actually sounds acoustic... but louder!

Speaker: 8’ twin-cone speaker-system (96 dB 1w/1m, freq. range 60Hz-18kHz)

Cabinet: 0.47’ (12 mm) birch plywood

Dimensions: h: 10.24’ (260 mm) x w: 10.43’ (265 mm)
