RECOMMENDED — not owned. Set to dotted 8th or subtle quarter-note echo to match the studio atmosphere.
The Aroma AG30 is a compact solid-state acoustic/clean amplifier with no presence control and limited high-gain headroom, which suits the delicate clean intro of Choo Lo perfectly. Setting gain low keeps the acoustic-electric guitar clear and percussive without harsh clipping, while a balanced EQ with a touch of extra bass warms up the under-saddle piezo pickup. A subtle external delay pedal is recommended to capture the spacious depth of Paras Thakur's original studio sound.
