I usually carry both my Martin and my Seagull with me to performance so that I can keep one in alternate tuning and not have to waste time on stage. Switching back and forth between them hasn't presented me with many problems.

What's funny is that I am starting to get into fingerstyle a little now (very rudimentary still) and the S6 sounds way better as a fingerstyle guitar than a strummer. Who knows, maybe I'll keep the thing after all...
