I saw P.O.D. on TV last night. One of the late night shows. I have

heard "of" them, first time hearing their music so don't know

Anyway they were doing an "unplugged' type set. The bass player had
a
AC50. I thought it sounded really good. Has me even more interested
in
getting one.

I love my AC50 but now kinda wish i'd gotten the fretless one. The
unplugged craze was why I got mine in the first place. You're not
going to hear an ABG without pluging in anyway in a gig situation so
why hassle with the wide body.

Just to play devil's advocate here - if you're going acoustic, why not
play an upright bass instead? The schlep factor is about the only
reason I can see.
