Re: Slimline acoustic-electric
The Yamaha APX series is another decent option. I used to gig with one (admittedly, this was the 90s-00s. And it was white, with lots of bling: an APX20 with stereo output no less). They are slim, so really easy to manage. They sound decent enough plugged in I think, but unplugged they are quite limited, the Taylor is much better.

Re: Slimline acoustic-electric
No idea sorry, but I think MusicWorks are the Ibanez retailer here. I guess they'd know how to get one in.

Re: Slimline acoustic-electric
why not get some piezos fitted in the bridge of a normal electric? I have some on a strat, with a push/pull knob to activate them - it cuts over to the piezo completely. Played through an Taylor IR, it sounds good enough for my tin ears.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Re: Slimline acoustic-electric
Cheers, BG. However I have sold a Strat today so have some money to put towards a new gat. When I sell the Maton, I'll have enough $$ to look at a Takamine TSP138CN.

Is it wrong that I've had "Rog fought the saw and the saw won" stuck in my head on endless repeat since reading this?

Really lovely tone and all, but man, I just can't play the damn thing well due to short stature, very fat belly and only having three fretting fingers (argument with a circular saw - the saw won).

Re: Slimline acoustic-electric NGD
NGD: My lovely brand new Takamine TSP138C N arrived today.
Really loving the thinline. Excellent build quality. Made in Japan.
Fits perfectly, light as, sounds great. 42mm nut, which is important to me for ease of playing with my munted hand.
I've also bought a little wireless set so I can wander up to the mic on club days without trailing a cord everywhere.
Funnily enough my wireless didn't like my Strat with the Fender Lace Sensors - must be lower output?
I'm using my KLIQ Aircell strap and together this is just fabulous for my ancient body.
Mucho kudos to Dave at the Rockshop for providing a great deal for me.
