How does it sound through the acoustasonic? I have always wondered how they go with solid-body electrics.

The acoustronic no effects sound is very true but I think you need to use a pedal board too.
I mainly fingerpick these days as I use gel on my nails and the different sounds are nice for Christian music even the 60/70s pop stuff.
Mainly use Takamine and Martin acoustics.
No distortion on the amp.
Thinking of another amp...

Thanks for that. Not surprisingly, it sounds a little like the flat and acoustic amp channels on my THR10c. They both give a clean and somewhat faithful reproduction, but are a little sterile with an electric guitar. Can make a good pedal platform though.

I fingerpick a lot too, but without any assistance from my natural nails. And they are typically clipped short so I largely play with fingertips. Mostly on electric these days. I find that careful use of a compressor helps even out the attack from different fingers.

I have two acoustics - a 40+ year old Kiso Suzuki steel string, and a Yamaha CG-100 classical. While the classical is fantastic for fingerpicking, I hardly ever take it out the case.
