For an acoustic-eclectric, the way it is most often done is to take the 1/4" OUT of the Guitar into the input of an active DI. The through OUT goes to the amp, and the XLR goes to the console.
For most people just the DI is preferred. In larger shows where you have more control over things you can get into more advanced stuff like DI+Cab Mic. (Or DI+CleanCabMic L/R and DI+Distortion Cab L/R... 5 guitar inputs.. ugh)
