Mesa/Boogie Rosette 300 2×8 Acoustic Combo

Capture Your Acoustic’s Tone with Detail and Clarity Like Never Before

Few can deny the intrinsic beauty of the Acoustic Instrument, especially the acoustic guitar. The visual beauty of the tonewoods, the curvaceous shapes and elegant lines of body styles, and the delicate artwork of inlay all coalesce in harmonious interplay with tensioned strings to produce musical promise.

So when our friends at MESA turned our eyes and ears toward amplifying these sounds, one thing stood out as an objective; Do No Harm. Because of its sincerity and perfection, there is no reason to “enhance” the sound of the acoustic guitar (or any other acoustic instrument for that matter), so the objective is to reproduce it beautifully.

Unlike electric guitar amplifiers that offer myriad enhancements and often complete re-voicings, the acoustic instrument has all the complex harmonic content it could ever need, on-board. All that is required is the accurate reproduction of that beauty.

While staying true to the concept of Do No Harm, few products or companies seem to share this perspective for Acoustic Amplification. And when it comes to the electronic and mechanical components and design needed to fulfill that order, it’s easier said than done. It requires a commitment to using the absolute best components and circuit design dedicated to uncompromising accuracy, purity of sound, and the lowest possible extraneous noise.

The ROSETTE line is a dedicated acoustic instrument platform designed not just for acoustic guitars, but also for mandolin, ukulele, violin/fiddle, dulcimer, cello, upright bass, and other uniquely acoustic instruments.
