"I not sure Richard Thompson should be near the top of the acoustic list."

I most certainly am !!

" I've always been disappointed with his tone."

Wot!! Have you seen him play live!!

" It's probably because he plays electric guitar so much. To be a really great acoustic player, a guitarist would really need to totally devote themselves to being "un-pluged"! "

Now your just being silly !!

Thanks "Dartford" for pointing the uninitiated in the right direction
