Dick Gaughan plays great meaty-sounding electric here and there on his recordings...

Bruce Cockburn is another great guitarist equally fluent in either language.

I sold my Tele Thinline _way_ too cheap--there's a real cry-in-your-no-buzz-beer story about that. (Thought it needed a refretting--a pricey job on the maple-neck ones. Turned out it had plenty frets, the neck had been oversprayed and they were kind of buried.) The bottom line reason I sold it, though, was that as a player I didn't like playing it enough to put the money into it--I guess that old Tele twang didn't keep it's appeal forever. Just a personal thing.

Now I've got a really nice Takamine solid-body that I don't play much but can't bear to deal out, I like it too much. But my current lust object is a single-cutaway Guild thin-body acoustic electric--a real hybrid that sounds like a real guitar when not plugged in, and like it ought to when amplified.
