Definitely digging my AC-3, no regrets.
Not going to get anything "better"... "better" would be a different mic system on the guitar at this point (some other than, or in addition to, the Fishman UST)
Great EQing options (including modeling)
Compressor
Reverb, PLUS reverb, delay, chorus, etc
Boost (which I'll never use)
Anti-FB
Mute/Tuner
XLR out (direct box)
It's got everything but a looper. But I would think for looper guys, they would want a full-function looper anyway, not a simple one that would be added onto a multifx/DI pedal.
The modeling I'm still exploring, but it seems really cool: set up to keep my guitar sounding like itself, it's remarkably accurate. Then if I want something more J45-y for strumming, I literally just change the Target Guitar to J45, and voila! More body, more Gibson-y sounding. Actually works really well.
And... it actually works REALLY well with my electric guitar amp: a Fender Supersonic 22 (which the clean channel is a copy of the Deluxe Reverb).
