I'm thinking about getting a new acoustic to replace my $150 fender. Does NMC have a nice selection? I want something a little different and I like Ibanez, but they're either very plain looking or completely wild. Any recommendations?

If NMC can't get it, then it simply doesn't exist or that particular geetar manufacturer sucks at business and/or life. Also, Boarder hinted at it, but if you buy at NMC there is a chance that the particular geetar you want has been run through the almighty Plek machine

Seeing how I am pretty far from being able to do that looks like Im stuck with my Epi Les Paul Custom...which is really pretty sweet.
