I'm learing electric and acoustic at the same time. I usually spend two days on electric (one day using a Strat and one day using a Les Paul) and then one day on acoustic and repeat. For my acoustic I purposely sought out a model with slim line body and a neck with measurements very close to an electric to make the transition easier. I ended up getting a Yamaha APX-600 (an added bonus is that it as acoustic/electric). I put Earnie Ball Earthwood 10-52's on it. I am finding the transition between the three types of guitars pretty easy. With the constant rotation my fingers and brain have adapted. I think this is making me a more well rounded player. I'm enjoying the acoustic more than I thought I was going to.
