Default Fender Acoustasonic (Player model)

Anyone have experience with it with a Fishman Mini Loud Box?
I've become intrigued with them- but none of the videos I saw used the Mini Loud Box- apparently the "Player" model is all that and a bag-o-chips and quite a bit less expensive than the US made model- just curious.

No experience.

The acoustic sounds are meant for use with PA system or smaller device (of which the Fishman is an example) that tries to be a self-contained PA that you can carry in one hand. It appears that even the electric sounds on this model are also designed more for that kind of amp/PA too, adding a bit of "guitar amp" like gain/EQ to the output of the magnetic pickup.

So for example, in the Andertons video they show their guy playing Tele electric type parts direct into their PA.

For the kinds of things I see you doing, a conventional microphone will give you better acoustic sound at a lower price, but as a stage guitar they could have a place.

Thank you Frank.
