Don't know that I would actually need it, but always fun to explore every possibility. If one wanted to make sure the Deep bass of an Acoustic Dreadnought stood out, without stepping on an Even Balanced Dreadnought's tone.

I sure like Waves description:
"Renaissance Bass enables you to deliver rich bass even over the smallest playback systems"
I don't have any Waves plugins anymore so have no idea how it might sound. But there is a fairly standard EQ move that I have found can enhance the low end response AND as counterintuitive as it may sound,, is simply using a high pass filter set somewhere between 70 hz and 100 hz with a 12 to 18 db roll off. And possibly also depending on which specific guitar a slight medium Q cut centered somewhere between 250 and 550 hz
And one more option some would say the purist option (is again a bit counterintuitive) is use a top address SDC close in, pointed just below and behind the bottom end (treble strings ) of the bridge.
