NUX Stageman Floor Acoustic Pre-Amp

The NUX Stageman Floor (NAP-5) is an analog acoustic preamp pedal paired with digital ambient effects and an onboard looper. Designed specifically for acoustic guitarists and multi-instrumentalists (mandolin, violin, banjo), it functions as an all-in-one tone-shaping front-end and DI box for gigging directly into a PA system, full-range monitor, or acoustic amplifier.

Key Specs & Features

• High-Headroom Analog Preamp: Delivers clean gain with natural dynamic range. Includes a Piezo / Magnetic toggle switch to optimize input impedance for your pickup type.
