I feel exactly the same way. I have spent a lot of time and money chasing after idealistic sounds. In the end, a good guitar, matched to a good pick-up system, and plugged into a good pre-amp lets me achieve an excellent tone through most typical acoustic amps or basic PA systems. No modelers required (though I have previously owned two). Effects-wise, I use a couple, but I am keeping it pretty simple. I have often found better results from really
learning how to optimize the equipment I already own, rather than rushing out to but the latest thing. For myself, I am just trying to have a pleasing tone, and then essentially forget about it so I have focus on actually playing music.
