Acoustic Guitars

[SirJackdeFuzz]

Is there anyone here that use (or did use) some very mild overdrive or distortion with their electro acoustics ?

The only clips i can find on YouTube when i do such a search is with massive amounts of gain, and that sounds horrible - to say the least.

Do you guys know of any good clips out there with minimal/tastefull amounts of gain with an acoustic ?

Thanx

Check out Jack Conte on the Tube. He plays his acoustic through all kinds of pedals. He uses a Big Muff with his acoustic.

Guitar solo at 3:14. This is the only one I can recall. Sounds more like Fishman EQ and real good compressor.

I don't have a link for you, but do a search on John Butler. He uses distortion on 12 string acoustics and on 6 string acoustics. He may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I like him.

There's a bit of distortion in his tone, but it works for the song.

Didn't Keef use an acoustic thru a busted radio speaker for the Satisfaction riff? Or maybe it was Street Fightin Man, or both. But anyways, its been done.

Yup, that's who came to my mind, as well.

The late T-Bone has a touch towards the end of this song from Live From Daryl's House.
