thats a good idea, very Beatles (i think they did that for strawberrry fields)

the way I recorded my acoustic was to record one track with just the acoustic guitar not amped, and then record anotther track with the acoustic amped (playing the same song of course) and then mix the two

and if your not opposed to just putting as many overdubs as you want on a song, you can record an acoustic track, then record each chord individualy so that you just play the chord once and let it ring out with a 12 string acoustic or maybe an electric with slight chorus, and mix the two
