There's always a bit of adjusting if I've only been playing electric or acoustic, but it becomes normal again. All my acoustics are Adamas and it was a bit of a challenge at first last month when I played for about an hour at an open mic using someone elses standard dreadnought.

At any rate, is there any reason you might be opposed to going the electric route with something like a Howard Roberts model or something like that, which has a larger, thicker body than a typical solid body electric?
