Sadly, there are great swaths of Catholic parishes here in the West that haven't seen an organ. Ever. Acoustic guitars, on the other hand ....

I will temper my comments in the future, then. I don't know of many Protestant congregations that are using acoustic guitars in worship. Electric guitars, on the other hand....:/

Musical buffoonery in Catholic circles seems to tend towards effiminate, hippy, new-agey "folk-style" music ... hence the acoustic guitars.

Musical buffoonery in Protestant circles seems to tend towards the hyper-amplified rock-n-roll style ... There's no Catholic equivalent to Stryper etc.
