A nice review by the OP and one that as an S6 owner I agree with for the most part.

I do question the 'dull' characterization though. I think describing the bass as 'boxy' and the highs as 'a little bright' is spot on. One of the reasons that I like the S6 so much for blues and ragtime is that it does have that bluesy boxy bass; and for a flesh only fingerpicker (like myself) the bright highs tend to be focused and project well. Those tonal characteristics may not be everyone's cup of tea but 'dull' is not the word I would use to describe it.

Having said that, I want to commend hotpocket for a very enjoyable and well thought out review!
