acoustic version

No amplifiers allowed

An acoustic version is a recording or performance of a song stripped of electronic amplification and effects, typically featuring only acoustic guitars, piano, or other unplugged instruments.

Artists release acoustic versions to showcase vocal ability or give familiar songs a more intimate feel: The acoustic version of that track is better than the original.
