Thanks for that FFMike. I know this is off topic and all, and I should probably ask someone who's not a big fan of LB for this, but it's connected to the acoustic "Big Love" anyway:

When Lindsey plays to people who do not know a thing about guitar playing (the majority of the audience, I guess) with an acoustic these days the usual reaction is probably along the lines: "Damn, he's good, doing all that stuff with just an acoustic!" I bet most of these do not even see his guitar cord and definitely don't know about the myriad of FX the strings go through (as in "Here Comes The Sun"). So, is he deliberately trying to impress some people this way or not? Is he trying to seem like a "natural" acoustic player when in fact he's playing with an electric? Is this another topic for ideological debate?
