I assume what you mean is that you don't expect much from the amplification components of an AE guitar and that the unplugged tone is what is most important to you.

If that is correct, then I would expect that a non-AE guitar, you know, acoustic, is what you should be looking for to avoid any diminishing of the tone from the onboard electronics (Especially a UST) and use a removeable soundhole pickup on the rare occasions you do need to amplify. Or, a very non-invasive SBT like the K&K or McIntyre Leaf if you don't want to fool around with putting in and taking out a soundhole pup.
