Most people have a soft sport for acoustic covers in one way or another. Even the craziest metal song can attract a whole new fan base when played as an acoustic guitar cover.
No genre of music is immune to being made into a instantly loved acoustic guitar cover. Metal, punk, and even hip hop have all witnessed their share of acoustic cover songs and there is no sign of them stopping.
Performing covers with an acoustic guitar can be a great way for you to start moving into the world of playing professionally. Playing local clubs and bars with a play list of recent chart toppers in acoustic forms can really get people to notice you. If you do opt for a set of amazing acoustics be sure that you pick your songs from a handful of genres so you can address everyone's different musical tastes. Some people may not be amused by two hours of speed metal played on acoustic guitar. Skill and the songs you play will be a big part in how quickly people take to your music.
Making a mix tape or compilation CD of your favorite acoustic covers can also strike a chord in the one you love. Throw together a few acoustic cover songs that have sweet and mellow lyrics and keep it on hand to play during your most romantic moments with him or her to show them that you care. Mix CDs are always an impressive way to show your creativity and love for someone without breaking the bank in the process.

Your normal taste in music doesn't matter when it comes to acoustic covers, as you will be able to get your fill almost instantly, and without trouble.
Acoustic covers can often make an old song sound brand new, or an awful song sound like the best you've ever heard. You might be surprised.
