An endpin jack in the guitar isn't invasive really, and is a lot less of a nuisance than a trailing cable or having to take it off the pickup every time, although you can do that with the M1A.
I hated the looper on the Flashback, the switch is horrible and makes it hard to get the loops in time.

Mine now has bridge saddles made of a different kind of plastic (you can get it for the joins between sections of the worktop in your kitchen). Apparently it works easily (so says luthier Colin), so making saddles the shape you want is a doddle. And the tone quality is way improved.
My main criticisms are

Ok so it's decided.

I don't like Shadow stuff, or onboard electronics like that. Getting too close to an electro.
Just my opinion of course!

In that case get the M1A - feedback is more of an issue at a gig than perfect sound quality.

Slight aside, but it might be worth saving an eBay search for an Aphex Acoustic Xciter pedal; I absolutely swear by them as 'sounds-better' boxes, with the massive plus of an XLR output for easier connection to a 'proper' sound desk.
Feed an active soundhole pickup into one of those (look out for the model that can be phantom-powered from the desk which have a little picture of a ghost by the XLR socket, saves buggering about with batteries) and you should have a simple-but-totally-effective acoustic gigging setup.
These days small portable professional quality sound systems are readily available, ex hire stuff makes it affordable too.
