Perhaps you noticed that one of the threads is about
pickups and the
different sound, when using a guitar amp and when using other gear.
I'm not a bonehead, I simply confront you with the technical facts.

I have a classical guitar that I put a

used putty to stick it under the bridge :) When plugged into my mixer
(impedance 10k?) it sounded really bad. I could eq it to not bad, but it
took a lot of eq to do so. My wife has a fishman loudmouth guitar amp made
for acoustic guitars and plugging into that made it sound wonderful with
no eq at all.
If Len would use Guitarix, it won't change anything, the preamp of the
mixer already is the culprit. And as soon as you use a preamp, such as
the Hughes & Kettner I mentioned, then you could use an amp emulation,
but then you don't need it anymore.
