Default which mic should I get?

I have a Sure SM57 for use with the electrics, Strat & LP through the Marshal. It connects to a Lexicon Alpha 'preamp' which then goes to Cubase. I get a rich thick recorded tone this way. But when recording an acoustic, the result is blunt and compressed. I think it's due to the mic being intended for electric guitar tone & volume range. Is there a mic in the $100 price range that would work will for acoustic guitar in this set-up? thnx/jd

ps. OOps, this was meant to be in the Record section rather than Play&Write. Oh well...
