Can Electric Guitar sound like Acoustic?
The sound varies ,but you can emulate acoustic sounds on electric via effects,pedals etc.Some electric guitars have a built-in peizo pickup for acoustic sounds .Eg: Wes Borland's(Limpbizkit) guitar'Search it in youtube and find out how close it sounds to the acoustic ;)

Why would you want to play Dropped C in acoustic? I am not sure if you get strings of that gauge for acoustic but light-medium strings should do the trick. Anything less and the strings will become too slack, you won't be able to hear anything.

There are some nice songs in dropped tunings like slipknot - vermilion pt 2 (BF#BEG#C# ;) ) ,Pearl Jam -'Oceans (DADF#AD) etc also some Micheal Hedges :rolleyes:
I was thinking.of either .054 or .056 ,I thing .054 will do the trick without warping neck.

Dropped D and B can be played on light strings as well.

I cannot guarantee how the neck will fare though.
