Electro-acoustic?

So, anyway, I have playing some music in a lo-fi acoustic band called the Lo-Fi Fun Factory and one thing that occurs to me is how distinct and curious the 'electro-acoustic' sound really is. It easily moves from an acoustic dynamic to an amplified one, but never really loses it's percussive qualities.

Listen for yourself...

Despite the fact that I adore the true sound of the acoustic guitar, the lo-fi sound of the basic 'plug-in' acoustic (without all the fancy 're-create the sound of a vintage Martin' nonsense) has a lot going for it...or so it seems to me...
