When it comes to "tone", it is always so subjective and no one individual is right or wrong. I am fairly certain my assessment of your X7 would be the same as it was for mine or rather close. I do agree that the guitars can sound very good, especially for fingerstyle.

And I think I have been pretty clear this whole time but I just want to reiterate, my dissatisfaction with the instrument lies solely in my plan to have used it as my one and only instrument. For a very small bodied guitar, I found it pleasantly loud, vibrant, and with great clarity.

Where I personally started to notice a lack of versatility is mostly with strumming and when I capo. I just could not get songs like Dave Matthew's Band "Grey Street" to sound good.
