Acoustic Lead Playing
I've always enjoyed playing electric leads, but I'm realizing that doing the same things when jamming on acoustics with my friends, the same ideas and techniques do not have the same effect. It sounds a lot better when I hear others play acoustic leads full of double-stops, triads, and the like. The problem is, I don't know a lot of that stuff. Does anyone know a good book on playing acoustic lead for rock-style? Or even a great acoustic modern-rock book, with both rhythm and lead stuff in it? I love Mellencamp's stuff (anyone catch the Bob and Tom Show this week?), or Bruce Springsteen's acoustic stuff.

Acoustic Guitar Magazine has an instructional book called "Acoustic Guitar Lead and Melody Basics". I don't own it, but their other books are pretty good.
