On average, Brooks have very slinky necks indeed compared to your average acoustic guitar (one of the reasons why I don't personally get on with them). Unless your Brook is a particularly "beefier" model, I'd be very surprised if the Martin were significantly less substantial.

Bottom line is that you're not really going to find an off-the-shelf acoustic that feels like a Tele.

I play electric, steel-string, and classical. Very different neck feels. Best thing to do is practice. You'll soon get to work around it.

Cheers,
