It will not work with an amp, you can purchase an inexpensive electric pickup that will attach to the guitar that will allow it to plug into an amp. Yes it will usually say acoustic electric if it can be plugged in

It's acoustic only, you'd need to buy an external acoustic pickup (cheap) to play through an amp. That said, but it! For the price this is an excellent guitar. It is 3/4 size, which is a little small for me, but to the average person it shouldn't be a problem.

Yeah. It is an acoustic that is plugged to an amp. It sounds just like an acoustic, just amplified.

This is an acoustic electric guitar which means it can be played and heard without an amp, but for better sound I prefer plugging into an amp.

It sounds just as good for $50 as it did on my electric. But hey! Just got the WET reverb yesterday. .. beautiful man.Biyang reverb will be fine with acoustic electric/electric till you get something better! Hope this helps!

Not designed for it, but (technically) you could plug into the mic port and get sound... and with an acoustic guitar the results might be acceptable. An electric guitar would probably be a disappointment... do to issues with gain, dynamic range and the lack of guitar centric tone controls.

It works fine on an acoustic but will never quite sound like an electric or an acoustic - somewhere in between I guess if you don't have an electric it will suffice.If you have a large 'Jumbo' guitar then it might be bit of a stretch from the headphone to the input jack - could pull the phones off when you move, twist etc. A major flaw in the design as I said in my review of it.

Yes, you plug it in to an amp with a cable. It requires a 9 volt battery in the guitar to work. I recommend this guitar for a beginner/kid to see if they are interested. You will need to buy a good tuner to make sure its in tune before playing each time. If you have any serious interest in guitar, spend the money on a decent guitar or you will just get frustrated as its harder to play on a less expensive guitar. - reviewed by Luciana's husband..

Yes, you certainly can plug an acoustic-electric guitar into it. In fact, it has a setting specifically for acoustic-electrics, with a number of sound options. I suppose one could also use the two electric guitar settings, and all of their options, as well. I only play through headphones, so I cannot comment on how the speaker sounds, but I expect that it sounds fine.

Take it out of the box, tune it and it sounds great without any adjustments. I have amplifiers but like my electric/acoustic guitars I usually prefer it unplugged.

I do not think so. Nothing about this guitar sounds good or even passable. You're better off buying something from Toys R' Us or Walmart and messing around with it. The only reason I would buy this if I was to paint it or hang it on the wall as decor.

You need to plug the guitar into the amp... so yes, but only if your acoustic guitar has an output on it. Most do not.

I don't know about that guitar specifically, but if you're just looking to give a guitar sound, this'll work. It has more of an electric sound, though, not perfectly acoustic.

Indoneisa, i wouldnt worry about that tho, if u want a nice acoustic for cheap this is the guitar. It resonates really nice almost like it has an effect. Also, the fret job isnt that bad wich i thouhht it would be when i was purchasing. Its smaller than you think tho so make sure u know what scale guitar yoir looking at before u buy this, it suprised me but im still very sattisfied

It sounds good. It is best for acoustic if you run thru a preamp first,I have a dean markley pickup on an older Martin and it needed the signal boost.But it plays an electric very nicely. Not a lot of special effects though. So you'd have to add that pedals for that.

Hi Jesse! No, this is not an electric guitar. It is, however, LOUD! Out of the five guitars I own, it is my favorite thought certainly not the most expensive. D Pendlay

It's acoustic"electric"... Doesn't have the electric guitar sound but you can connect it to amplify the acoustic sound
