McPherson Acoustic Guitars

Heard of Paul Baloche? Yep. The guy who wrote and sang "Above All" and "Hosanna" to name a few. I've seen him using the strange looking acoustic guitar with a sound hole that was not in it's usual place. It was offset more to speak.

What do you know? The brand is from McPherson. This unique guitar was born using state-of-the art technology and innovative design. You will notice they have 3 unique features. Number one is that it has a Offset Soundhole Technology (TM), State-of-the-art bracing and a cantilevered neck design.

It sure sounds sweet and rich. Their website also has some sound samples for you to listen to. Man... I want one!

It’s like having a drummer inside your amp. Choose from an assortment of groovin’ patterns to practice with. Improve your timing while having a more enjoyable musical experience, or just have fun jamming along to the beats.

Outputs
The Phones/Recording output serves two purposes: Plug in a set of headphones and enjoy private practice with lush, stereo sound, or plug directly into a stereo mixer or recording device for accurate signal transfer directly from the MICRO CUBE RX.

The MICRO CUBE RX’s line input lets you plug in a guitar, bass, or microphone. In addition, the stereo AUX input accepts input from an iPod®, a CD player, or musical instrument so you can blend its signal with your own.
