The Chet is really a sweet guitar but you really do have to plug it in to get a good sound. It really has a hard time as a stand-alone acoustic guitar which, in my opinion, would be it's ONLY short coming. But you can't have it all right?
If you're looking at spending less than $1k you might want to look at Taylors. You should be able to find a nice mid to low range model for that price. I'm a Martin man myself but usually you have to add your own electronics. Just cruise the guitar stores and play around...spending that kind of money on a guitar is fun!
