| Doug -- The Eminence isn't an electric, it's an acoustic that comes with a Realist pick-up installed on it. I've played one and liked it very much, but whether it's the best choice depends on how loud you will need to get. Compared to real electric uprights, the Eminence won't get as loud, since it's an acoustic and will be prone to feedback at high volumes, and the Realist generally doesn't get you as much gain as other pickups.
If high volume (i.e., playing with a loud drummer or other loud instruments) isn't an issue, the Eminence is a nice instrument.
