Fender Acoustasonic SFXII Acoustic Guitar AmplifierAre you looking for the perfect “all-in-one” instrument and vocal amplifier for club dates, church or the local coffeehouse? Or, do you want to simply lose yourself in shimmering stereo sound in the privacy of your own home? If so, look no further than the new Fender® Acoustasonic™ SFX® II amplifier. This dual 80-watt combo houses an 8” low-frequency driver, high-frequency tweeter, and side-radiating 6” speaker to maximize Fender’s exclusive Stereo Field Expansion (SFX) technology for whole-room, more-than-stereo imagery. Includes three-button footswitch for tuner mute and FX on/off for each channel. Dimensions: 22.7 x 22.8 x 11.5", 54 lbs.
The amp’s two separate instrument and microphone channels contain individual EQ, Feedback Notch, and DSP Select and Level controls. Fender's patented String Dynamics™ control tames harsh treble notes. Handcrafted DSP effects include Reverb, delay, chorus, Vibratone and more – all optimized especially for acoustic performers. XLR line out with Level control and Ground Lift allows perfect direct input to any mixer. Auxiliary RCA inputs with Level control makes it easy for the player to add a drum machine or CD player for accompaniment.

QUALITY: What sets this amp above the rest is the SFX feature. The sound is similar to a bose sound system.
FEATURES: I agree with the other review, The features are great but could of seperated the efects better.
EASE OF USE: The amp is very easy to use, Just plug in the Mic and Guitar and set the controls even and then tweak.
VALUE: I have played all the acoustic amps out there and have found none that come close to the quality of the sound. The guitar clarity is great and the vocals are very rich. Hard to beleive that there are only the 8" and 6" with the tweeter.
SOUND: I was playing the amp when my keyboard player cam to my house and walked in my music room. He could not beleive all this sound was coming out of just the amp alone. I normally play through a Marshall split with a tube hot rod deluxe. This amp is great for doing small venues and parties where you just want to play acoustic and sing. | |

| OVERALL: Overall you cannot beat this amp for price/value/sound. The only amp that comes close is the Ashdown, but is it really worth another 600$.
I have to say that this is one of my favorite acoustic amps of all time. The amp is solid. Just pick it up. It ways a ton. Feels like it will take gigging abuse well. Controls are well laid out and easy to access.
Personally, I am the type of player who hates anything incorporated into my amp. Keep it simple. I like to keep my effect pedals seperate as I feel I have better control of my sound that way. That being said, finding it not necessary to lug around a pedal board to every gig is nice. Give or take, I would still rather have the amp without the effects built in.
Well laid out controls. Easy to understand and use. My only complaint would be that you cannot control each effect individually while mixing two effects at once.
Just the sound of this amp makes it worth the 650$.
Impressive. | |

QUALITY: I think my Fender SFXII that I just recently purchased from you was made with pride and quality in mind. It is tight fitting and has a detailed look that is second to none. I am very impressed..
FEATURES: With all the features, it gives me more opportunity for a variety of sounds. Also, I have less feedback coming from my acoustic electric guitar when I plug into my Fender SFXII. This is attributed to a wider variety of adjustments to control any unfriendly sounds.
EASE OF USE: My sound man at my church was so impressed with how easy it was for him to aquire the right sound when he took my Fender SFXII directly into the sound system. Everything is laid out on the contols in simple easy to understand form. I didnt sort through a bunch of hard to understand lingo. It is plain and easily understood
VALUE: To me, the price was compatable with the quality and features. I always say that you get what you pay for |
