As much as I love electric instruments, effects and amplifiers, acoustic guitar sometimes makes you feel closer to the "Core of existence."
That sounds so corny, but I think it's true! For two months now, I've been loving the simple life of an acoustic musician. Think I'll just hang out here a while longer.

All I need is a few good beers and my "Roxanne" and it's all love.
I have often felt I could hear the angels singing while playing my 555 Taylor 12 string. You have to listen much more closely to acoustic instruments and thus more is heard.
I LOVE acoustic music/guitar,it's simply the BEST 🙂
Both worlds are fine, but for the last 15 years I prefered the acoustic guitar, after playing electric all my life.
It takes more effort to make an acoustic guitar sound good. An electric can be fed through effects, racks, etc. They even have robot guitars.
+arjay el II I think I understand what you're saying, but if you count the effort involved with lugging amps and other accouterments involved with electric guitar, the acoustic seems pretty effortless and always sounds great straight away. 🙂
The beauty of the guitar as a versatile instrument (electric, acoustic, classical).
In the great debate between the two fully compositional instrument, the guitar always wins out over the piano (IMHO) because you can bend the notes and carry it with you!
But I love both acoustic and electric guitar, of course, I just love the purity of the acoustic a bit more.
Watching a man's hands and fingers as he plays guitar – especially acoustic – is as sexy as it gets. sigh

Nothing like a steel string, acoustic guitar (purity of sound + exposed vulnerability of player – much like in unplugged/a cappella songs – are refreshing).
