Yamaha AG Stomp, world's first acoustic guitar preamp with microphone modeling
Yamaha Guitar Products, will debut a breakthrough in digital modeling technology with the introduction of the Yamaha AG Stomp at Summer NAMM 2001—the world's first acoustic guitar preamplifier to feature Acoustic Microphone Modeling.

Equipped with Yamaha's proprietary Acoustic Microphone Modeling (AMM) technology, the AG Stomp transforms the output of ordinary piezo and magnetic pickups—or even built-in mics—into the sounds of world-class microphones. The AG Stomp emulates eight microphone types: including condenser, dynamic and tube (in close and distant proximities), producing a natural acoustic/electric tone. Ideal for the studio, stage and the road, the Yamaha AG Stomp will be available in September.
"Acoustic guitar music is not a throw-back, nor is it a passing fad," states David Bergstrom, director of marketing, Combo Group, Pro Audio & Combo Division. "Witness the popularity of the 'unplugged' format and the resurgence in folk-rock, for example. Yamaha is a leader in both acoustic guitar and modeling technology, and the AG Stomp combines those strengths to create an entirely new category in the acoustic guitar effects market."
The AG Stomp features a total of 60 sound programs (30 Preset/30 User) and four-band parametric EQ (Treble, Midrange, Bass and Presence with 12 dB cut/boost and sweepable frequencies). A Piezo/Mic blend knob allows the user to create the perfect mix between the pickups and the selected microphone sound. The unit allows real-time control for up to 14 effects parameters, and up to eight simultaneously using the optional Yamaha FC7 expression pedal. On-board effects include a limiter, four-band chorus, delay and three reverbs.
An integrated five-band programmable feedback reduction system with Auto Touch eliminates troublesome onstage feedback, making it an ideal live performance tool. Four built-in footswitches provide easy access to programs, effects, feedback reduction and on-board Chromatic Tuner.
Other features include: balanced 1/4-in. stereo outputs (XLR to 1/4-in. adapters included) for hotter signal/noise ratio; a headphone output for practice usage or as an additional stereo output; and a digital output for clean, direct recording from the digital circuitry (44.1 kHz output in Coaxial format) to a digital recorder without signal degradation. A 9-Volt phantom power supply eliminates the need to buy batteries to power the guitar's internal preamp.
Constructed with a sturdy metal stomp box design, the AG Stomp features an angled top, which keep the user's foot from getting in the way of knobs and controls.
"Guitarists have been in need of a more natural-sounding effects processor that will improve the tone of a magnetic or piezo-driven acoustic guitar," states Gary Cook, Guitar product manager. "The Yamaha AG Stomp more than answers those needs, and saves guitar players the hassle of having to spend thousands of dollars on microphones and effects. This is the ultimate acoustic guitar preamp, and the first of its kind."
