Funny little story to go along with this. When I was picking up my guitar there were other guitarists in the store trying out the seagull SWS models (both rosewood and mahogany). They were all quite shocked at how good they were and how low the price tag was. They were the best sub $1500 guitars in the shop by all accounts.
I picked the HG over the SG, but the SG is $100 cheaper and sounds more "open" when new. It takes a bit longer for the HG to get "there".
These SWS models will chip into their artist lines for sure, and why they will probably come out with some new artist models that are even better then the current ones.
