is there something unique about Edges acoustic playing?

I'm just curious...I know Edge has a unique sound when he plays electric with delay and all...but what about Edges (far underrated) acoustic playing? Is there a certain way that he strums, or is it the strings and the picks that he uses? basically I just want to know everything about acoustic Edge.

don't know really,but i saw when he plays arpeggios,like stay from boston dvd,he picks 1st string hard.
his hand goes down all the time,and then quick movement up.

If noticed that he plays solid and tastefully choppy acoustic. It's more resonant and he leaves a lot of space for the chords to rest. I esp love acoustic Stuck In a Moment, Ground Beneath her Feet, and Staring at the Sun. Walk On is good acoustic, just not one of my faves.
