Interesting guitar. I've never had a desire for an acoustic, but I could go for that.

Cool looking guitar. A buddy has a Gibson Chet Atkins that is a lot like this, but in the shape of a Les Paul. It plays and feels just like an electric. If I ever get the ambition I've thought about making a Mustang version......now that would rock and roll.....or is it, country and western?

if i had the money to spend i'd be all over it, because i really do like the idea of a solidbody with a piezo pup in it...

why not just get some electric and put a drop in piezo bridge in it?

I don't think that would sound much different than a stratacoustic.

The Nashville Power Tele has a Fishman piezo pickup.

...I like it, but not much.

Fender's acoustics always look cool, but then I play them and remember that they should stick to electrics... Though I guess that thing is a different beast entirely.

I want a Malibu, so I can pose.

aaannddd......pass...Although I wouldn't get the nashville either, piezo-on-electric stuff never really sounded that different/acoustic like to me.

I think it's an interesting guitar, but I would rather stick to full bodied acoustic.

the chet atkins i've played sounds really warm, even thought it was an epiphone, but the guy wanted like $500. a mustang would be so bad ass! if you ever pursue this, i would donate in any way i could.
