Default Ibanez AF71F

"Proper?" It is an archtop electric guitar. Not really an acoustic guitar, even though it is a true hollow body. I have an AF70 and like it quite a bit. I play blues on it mostly.

An archtop hollow electric guitar body has some resonance but is typically built of pressed plywood to resist feedback.

If you want to play lower volume blues or jazz, or even some non-heavy rock this is a nice guitar. I like mine.

If you want to use it as an acoustic style guitar, it's not the one. It has a narrow, radiused electric style neck and while it has some some resonance, it's not enough to stand alone.

Mine:
