The Dean Exotica Quilt Ash http://www.guitarcenter.com/Dean-Exotica...amp;cagpspn=pla
is my go to acoustic-electric guitar. This has a great sound and sounds virtually identical when play as an acoustic or an electric.

But if you buy from reputable dealer like Rondo, Musician’s Friend/Guitar Center, Sweetwater or Music 123 you will be ok. I have purchased or have received guitars as gifts from all four with no problems. You may have to have the guitar properly set up but thus far I have 5 guitars from these dealers and I only had to set up one. I did that myself.

Good luck in your search.

I think my wife has started to show the first signs of dementia.
She said she can't remember what she ever saw in me!

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
