CLassical?
Are you trying to make the piece sound moody?
I'd lose the electric sound altogether or just mix it in in the background but use a classical with some deep dark reverb and some stereo spread ambience. Something I really like about the waves PS22 stereo spread. THe lows bounce to one side and the highs to another. Add a bit of frequency tracking to it and you've got a sound that blends the best of acoustic guitar with synth stereo dynamics.
Just an idea.
I find that an acoustic has some really rich qualities that an electric lacks. VIce versa but my main point is that one ofthem works where another doesn't
Especially when mixing with synth sounds like pads and motions. An electric with heavy overdrive taeks up a lot of space (Unless of coarse you try to sound like Steve Hillage and drown the sound in long dotted 8th delay and mod FX). BUt an electric as we know it and love it for it's heavy rich metallic distortion leads etc does eat up a lot of space in the mix and covers up a lot of harmonics that are easy to notice otherwise.
THe acoustic sound as you know is rather transparent and easy. It could work even better than a clean electric sound although a clean electric needs some heavy FX to get noticed in the mix.
Okay, now I'm getting into really deep stuff...
I guess you do whatever works.
Me? I've decided to go for the new Access Virus TI. With some 64 wavetables it is worth every penny.
Now, I think that the grand and the Mac can wait.
No rush.
