AER Compact 60 III Tommy Emmanuel 1x8 Acoustic Combo Overview

AER Compact 60 Tommy Emmanuel 1x8 Acoustic Combo Overview 

The AER Tommy Emmanuel signature amp is based on AER’s best-selling Compact 60, the 60W model used most often by Emmanuel. Aboriginal art etched into one side of the cabinet symbolises Tommy’s deep love for his homeland of Australia and its people, and in particular his connection to Aboriginal Australians.

On the opposite side of the cabinet, Tommy’s “TE” initials are carved into the cabinet as well as “CGP” – a tribute to Tommy’s mentor Chet Atkins, who bestowed upon Tommy the honorable designation of Certified Guitar Player (C.G.P.). Tommy was one of only five guitarists ever to receive the distinction from Chet.

In another subtle personal touch, AER has incorporated a reverb/delay effect setting from the Alesis Midiverb II, long used by Tommy, into the Compact TE’s onboard effects section (in position 3). Additionally, contrary to the standard Compact 60, the DI Out signal will incorporate the effects. Finally, the gig bag strap features signature embroidery.
