Acoustic versions were my bread and butter in high school.

That oud guy might be acoustic, but fucked if he ain't heavy.

I really, really love Iron & Wine!

Creek Drank The Cradle is literally a perfect album.

There is (was?) a band from Sweden called Hellsongs that just does stuff like this. Soft, clean covers of old 80s metal classics. I only know of their one album Hymns in the Key of 666, don't know if they've done more.
