I'm gonna get a acoustic built not acoustic electric thinking a 12 string with a trapeze style tail piece, slotted headstock, realwood binding, and bound headstock was told should make sure to get quartersawn neck also I figured if I got a 12 string I could always just string it with 6 and have a great guitar with a slightly fatter neck and more space between the strings (Skip James 1931 paramount recordings I know Josh white also sometimes played this way) Love Blind Willie McTell and the old Stella sound but figure nowadays solid birch may not be the best tone wood choice ANY COMMENTS WOULD BE APPRECIATED---------- I'm a pre war blues fanatic, I also love: Lightnin Hopkins, Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, Woody Guthrie, Cisco Houston, Ramblin Jack, Lead Belly, Bob Dylan, Peter La Farge, Hank Williams, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Reverend Gary Davis, Stanley Clarke, Victor Wooten, and Lenny Breau, and other Jazz, Folk, Classical, Old Country, Cowboy music, Jam Band, and Reggae as well. Left handed and plan to buy a new Gibson J-200 someday---------I hope I'm in the right place?
