I've got a Rainsong H-OM, courtesy of Ted, and I play it far more frequently than any other acoustic in the house, and I have one that cost me more than four times what the Emerald cost, and has me considering selling everything else. In fairness, I played an Emerald, but it's body and my body couldn't peacefully coexist; while I loved the arm bevel, the size of that guitar had the back top edge hitting my ribs in an uncomfortable manner. While the Rainsong does not have the arm bevel, it seems to be a better fit for me. If they offered a rib bevel on the Rainsong, I'd consider it, it played and sounded very nice. I will not ever sell the Rainsong, though. In addition to all the CF benefits, it simply sounds fantastic, especially plugged in.
