For doing acoustic guitar and vox in one pass you might want to put up a pair of mics about 2-4 feet away.
Depends on your room, the volume balance between your vocal and the guitar, and a bunch of other factors.
But I would at least give it a shot.
At a couple points in this video the camera pans back to show the mic placement.
Notice that the mic aimed at the guitar and the mic aimed at the vocal are spread and he is pointing the guitar very slightly to his right and singing to his left. My guess would be that the LDC's are panned right up the middle and the SDC's are slightly panned L/R to provide a little more "space" so everything isn't right down the middle.
