i'm wanting to play one to see if i like it, and want to know a couple things first:

and how easy are they to find?

actually guitar centers dont usually have them, the ones ive been to dont at least. atlanta said they cant, and nashville could, but of course gibson showcase is only 4 miles away, and valley arts guitars was only about 2.

You can get them from almost every magazine/site (like musician's freind) that carry gibson guitars. If it's not shown, they normaly can order you one from the plant.

Also, the Chet is a very good guitar. Do NOT buy it to record with. This is a stage guitar, not a studio. If you are getting one for the studio, you should get a regular acoustic, one that is deep and hollowed. Also, the guitar is much slimmer and same goes for 5the neck, so it will feel more like an electric than an acoustic. But for the guitar itself onstage, great guitar, really good guitar.

probably but cost wise, its way more exspensive to gte a nice acoustic and mic it well then it is just to plug my chet into the back of my cpu, it works well for me atleast.

yes but if you were recording in a studio an acoustic would be better.

if you still want solid body that isn't huge priced and better for studio, Godin/Seagull would be best. The Godin ones are good, and the once Godin A6 now is the Seagull SA6. Let film infrom you on the details, lol
