Re: Post your acoustics!
Haha yeah, christian rock frontmen always play cutaway acoustic/electrics (just an observation). I usually dont like cutaways, but there are a few guitars that i like it (most taylors, and breedloves), but i prefer small body Gibson L00 style or Kayish arch top acoustics. I guess i never really gave it a chance, because i rarely play that high up on an acoustic.

Re: Post your acoustics!
Here's mine:

It is a 1970 Martin D-12-35, converted at the factory in the mid-70's by request of the original owner to a 6-string. It is a dreadnought 12-fretter and it has more low-end growl then anything I have ever played. It will blow the doors off the loudest banjo.
It has a big wide neck because of its 12-string history, but it is great for fingerpicking. I mostly flatpick on it though, which makes it tough to switch back to my Mustang. Unfortunately, it is one year late for Brazillian rosewood. !970 is when they switched to Indian. Otherwise it would be worth twice what it is. If it was still a 12-string, it would be worth double that again, probably. Oh well, still the best sound I have ever heard in an acoustic.

Isn't it sad.... I'm immune?

L-R (1)'70s Ibanez Concord 12-string, the All Maple Monster! Sounds amazingly huge, I chose this over 2 '60s Martin 12's. (2) 1965 Epiphone Cortez, got it for a steal of $250! Perfect for that Nick Drake/Pink Moon sound, Bert Jansch used one (3) 1964 Supro Folk Star
Front (4) 1965 Gibson Country Western (belongs to my g/f but I gig with it)
