Anyone have one of these? and how do they sound? Also what's a good price on one? There's one on my local Craigslist for $600.

Never heard of the Acoustosonic Strat (doesn't mean much, there's a lotta stuff, I don't know about, LOL)
Do you mean the Stratacoustic? If so, you should be able to get a new one for about $250.

No it's different. Seen some on elderly for about $1000 but don't know how old those ads were and what the current price they go for.

The look like a strat, same body shape, and neck looks a lot like a strat neck, but it's an acoustic/electric I guess. I have to find specs.
It's a pretty thin body so was wondering if the sound is good or not.

Here's a pic of one

They're much better than Stratacoustics.

It feels like a chambered Strat--which in essence it sort of it.

I like the feel of them, and they sound good plugged in.

They're not as good as a good flat tp, but I liked it.

$600, if it's in good shape isn't too bad--see if you can talk them down a bit.

If I was in a band I'd have one to use on stage--it would be a cool look for an acoustic number.

I seen one that just ened on Ebay that was at $500 with no bids. So yeah I might wait and see if he relist it for less.

Someone just posted a telecoustic for $150, seems like an ok price, made in china. Anyone know how those are?
