Hi Ted. You said

Have you tried an x7-os built since Emerald started including the truss rod as standard? (closed neck as well) I swear they must have changed something in their top design since mine does indeed hold it's own.
I do have experience in this area as I've owned two GSminis previously. Both a sitka and mahogany top. The X7-OS does not have the same bass as my Rainsong Shorty, but the actual volume is quite similar. It's just more balanced with stronger mids.

I'm just really curious as this has not been my experience.
