I just like the sound an acoustic guitar makes. When I did play in a band I had two mics, one to play into and one to sing into. I understand that it is convenient to have plug-in amplification if you play large venues/rowdy pubs but "acoustic effects" seem to take away the point for me. If I wanted an electric guitar I'd buy one! (C.O.G.? me?)

Dare I mention the Chorus Pedal? Is it the 80s? I used to have one back then.

I just found a D-Tar Solstice which really makes my guitars sound clean and clear.

The D-Tar Solstice is a pre amp surely?...like most decent preamps it can be adjusted to give you a "natural' sound. reverb.com/item/83872-dtar-solstice-acoustic-instrument-mixer-preamp
