Aaron this little Applause was only $149.00 from Guitar Center in Vegas. I was playing 4 & $500.00 guitars, And this one killed them with the sound it had. And it has the shallow back that was comfortable to play. And easy to put up on a Mic Stand when playing 2 guitar parts. But you can get a pickup for yours cant you? You have a nice one that you may not want to that to though?
