I want a really organic, mic'ed sound when plugging in, playing live, or recording my acoustic guitar

 

I hate the usual "electric pickup" acoustic guitar sound...

 

I like it sound as warm, bassy, and full as possible...

 

I think that's the best way to describe the sound I want...what would you guys recommend?

K&K is the way to go. In my LV-03K I have a Trinity Western (Pure Western soundboard transducers and a mini mic) which sounds really woody and natural acoustic. I have a Ultrasound AG50 DS2 on the way, so I've only played my pickup direct in to my computer for some quick recording as of yet, but it sounds fantastic for that, which is a good deal more picky than an acoustic amp or PA. Anyhow, check out www.kksound.com

A pair of external condenser mics is best, and is the only "real deal" for recording.

 

For gigging, if you can't use two mics, then use one mic with a pickup, the K&K and the PUTW #54 are good choices. If you can't use a mic live, use just the pickup and cringe slightly, or use a UST pickup (not a SBT) with either the Aura or Mama Bear and cringe a bit less.
