AMUMU GLORIFIER Acoustic Guitar Preamp DI Direct Input Box Guitar Pedal

This preamp has a nice high impedance input that makes piezo pickups sound more natural and the instrument doesn't have an internal preamp. Works well as a direct box too.

There are many different interfaces but value here is excellent. Phantom power is a nice feature and the EQ and gain controls allow not only clean acoustic or direct electric tones but the ability to tweak the sounds outside of just the regular sounds

My brother loved it. He now moves around without a cord connection

I bought this to pair with my K&K Pure Mini pickups, as it has the correct impedance and due to its pedalboard-friendly size. I also own the K&K Pure XLR preamp. I have A/B'd both preamps, and I can say both are similarly quiet, but the AMUMU is a little more muffled and muted when the EQ is at noon. It can be dialled out, but it's worth noting. Further, the XLR jack is cheap. It doesn't lock the cable into place. If you want to use this as an XLR DI, I would look for another option. Having a fantom-powered XLR pop out while performing makes for a thunderous pop that should be avoided at all costs.All in all, it is a decent budget unit. I don't think it should be considered a pro-unit. I also can't say if it's road-worthy... time will tell.

This is exactly what I needed. Not only for acoustic guitar, but for any acoustic instrument with a pickup.It's very versatile, I've tried it with: An acoustic guitar with a hot detachable piezzo pickup, and a percussion stomp box, and a kalimba (thumb piano), both with internal pickups. In all three cases, this box gave me control over EQ and gain which was not present onboard each instrument. This greatly improved my tone control, as well as allowing me to preempt the feedback it is so very easy to produce when going into a guitar amp. In related fashion, It really gave me a nicer signal when sent through additional effects pedals. Also improved the sound of these less than stellar pickups when I used the DI into the XLR input in my digital interface for recording.Having this serve as both an in-line 1/4 inch preamp AND a DI box for XLR use (Even simultaneously) is a ridiculously helpful and versatile feature. Likewise, this may be powered three ways: Wall adapter, phantom power via the XLR, or your classic 9 volt battery.The materials are solid, as is the construction. Sturdy enough for floor use, pretty enough for a flashy boutique pedal board, haha.I love it. I recommend it. I could see myself getting a second one at some point.
