It was a little too brite at first but if you back down on the treble knob it's perfect. I need another guitar like a hole in the head but I think I'm going back there tonight and buy it. They offered it to me for $350 which sounds good. They're like $395 at Musicians Friend.

And yea you have to plug it in. Otherwise it sounds like an unamplified electric.
Go on Ebay. Not kidding, they sell used ones in great shape and usually with a hardcase. Check it out first.

Wow, you're not kidding! I may be able to grab one for under $300.

Thanks for the tip! :D
