    It's funny- the last acoustic I bought with no concern about how it sounded in the room- it had to sound great through a PA. I ended up with a Godin Multiac. String size or technique doesn't matter a ton because the signal is blended with a Fishman model of a well-recorded acoustic guitar.

      While it's a pretty cool guitar, a Multiac isn't an acoustic. It's an electric guitar that doesn't use magnetic pickups. :P

        True, but it sounds like well-recorded acoustic through a PA, which is why I got it. In a room not plugged in, it sounds like a banjo.

          Acoustic guitar need tension and size to resonate the body at their best.
          My Farida dreadnaught came with 011's,

          and I've been putting 011's on it ever since I got it, 15 years ago \m/ .

          It seems to be happy with it;- so do I.
          If somethings important- send a PM. I might be offline for long periods. Rock on!!!
