I was completely blown away by the Rainsong APSE the other day. It looks great but sounds even better. It was warm, clear and complex. The neck played great with no noticeable dead spots. It lacked a little bass for me and I really miss the 20 fret neck and the upper access. I am looking for 1 guitars to play for everything and without at least 19 frets, I can't play some songs I wrote.

I see other Rainsongs come with a 21 fret neck and that there are size choices. But are there any as warm, clear and complex (at the same time) as the APSE? Can you even get that without the 12 fret neck and short scale? Clear is easy, but warm, clear and complex is not!

I should add that color isn't all that important to me. The Sunburst was very nice but I am on a budget. The acoustic tone is much more important to me than any other factor.
