Hey yall I was thinking my next big purchase is going to be an electric acoustic. I have a lower end Ibanez acoustic at the moment and a lower end Dean electric at the moment. I was looking for a couple of sudjestions on a brand of (mid priced... no more than $500) acoustic electrics. I heard Alverez and Taylor are good guitars. I am going to do reserch and check them out before I buy (being on a budget makes one look a little closer before you buy). Also what is the difference between an acoustic amp and the one I have with my electric guitar. Thanks!
