it's only the electric acoustic guitars that have the socket to plug it into an amplifier…..which is what makes it electric…

An electric acoustic guitar is an acoustic guitar with electric "pickups" below the strings. A pickup converts the vibration of the string into an electrical signal. This signal is carried through wires to the socket in which you plug in your amplifier.

Only EA's have the plug in for cables. Regular acoustics are for places without power sources for an amp (but AE are also used for this). Basically what I'm trying to say is that an AE is the best of both worlds so to speak. Gah I hate that phrase. Don't quote me on that. Thanks.
