I actually think that acoustic guitar is a way more dynamic instrument. You don’t have to rely on tones to make something sound aggressive. You can dig in or play lightly, and you can hear it in the strings and the fret noise, so I rely less on effects and more on how I play and how I touch the guitar. Because it’s so delicate and airy, I hear areas that could be strings or piano, and you can play more staccato on the strings and have it be percussive, so it’s fun to play with that. ~ Yvette Young
