: Ive been playing for about 3 weeks on a lil Epiphone FT-135 I had in the basement and Im loving life--but now I want to get a newer guitar. Can someone recommend an accoustic or accoustic/electric that I can pickup for under 200 buck

YOur best option for under 200 to get an acoustic sound (especially if you are doing any live work) is to get the Fishman power bridge. This will fit into any Strat or Tele style guitar and sends an electric/acoustid sound from the piezo pickup in the bridge to either an amp or PA via one side of a stereo splitter cable. It also sends the signal from your electric pickups via the other side. I recently had this installed on my Telecaster, and it gives me incredible versatility to be able to swith to the acoustic pickup. It doesn't sound like a miced acoustic, it sounds like a GOOD acoustic electric (much like an ovation in my opinion) plus you get the playability of an electric.
