I'm surprised Roger..

You should have led with the washboard, they like a man willing to scrub his own Y fronts....

Mind you, I used to know a washboardist called Les, and let me tell you. He wasn't backwards at going forward, despite being old enough to be their granddad....

Dick, the difference can be blurred these days, especially with the low actions you get on some acoustic guitars of late.. My electro acoustic Rainsong can be whatever it likes and play how I like. The only difference being whether I press the foot pedal on the DI to go straight to mixer or to my effects processor.... Technology is allowing some interesting combinations....
