Check out some basic setup info and instruction website, like http://www.fretnotguitarrepair.com/r...tar/action.php and see if you can possibly identify the causes of your problems. Then talk to us some more.
Thanks - that is what I think - although I am pretty average, the fact that I can't get a simple barre chord progression to sound nice on the acoustic is a big source of frustration, and like I said, I've been playing for nearly 20 years. I'll look at the set up and maybe take it to my local trusted guitar shop. I could do the work myself - but for $50 - I am happy to let an expert mess with it.
