Default Different Direction?

Acoustic amps are basically PA's for guitar. (Electric guitar amps have loads of mids - just try plugging in a mic or your MP3's to any electric amp and you''ll see what I mean.) Acoustic amps are a close relative to a Hi-Fi amp - so PAs work for acoustic guitar as well - but you'll probably need a DI preamp. I'd say half my friends who gig with acoustic now say, had they a choice now they'd skip the expensive acoustic amp and get a very good acoustic pre-amp, a PA, and small mixer. Considering these guys spent £1k on a nice acoustic amp - there's a lot of meat in there for a nice pre-amp / mixer / PA set up.
