Acoustic Guitar Distortion Problem

acoustic guitar distortion problem
should I get a guitar amp or an acoustic guitar?

Hi my situation is that I have a gibson les paul standard, great guitar and also an epiphone valve jr. The valv jr. sound great only problem is that it only has 1 control, volume. for those of you that don’t know how boutique tube amps work, when you crank up the tubes you get a natural distortion. As you can see if i crank up my amp it gets to unbearable levels. So I know I need a new amp. I am probably going to get the marshall vintage modern. Now I lead worship at my church, also I play in a classic rock band where I’d be using my les paul. I’m going to get both eventually but need to decide which first. Because there both over 2000+. btw I’m probably going to get a 614ce because taylor says the 600 series are great for live use. Anyone else have reccommendations for acoustic guitars?

yes. Martin makes some affordable acoustic guitars. I’d recomment an electric acoustic. I have sold quite a few of them. They sound a lot like their more expensive relatives. My favorite was an electric acoustic solid spruce top with rosewood laminate sides. gorgeous sounding and beautiful looking! You can usually get these under a $1000 dollars, sometimes a lot cheaper.
