Of course sound is subjective and I could just be blinded by the BLING! Congrats and enjoy!
If I could find someone that had the OM version I'd be interested in making a trade - rosewood would fit my ear better in a smaller bodied instrument!

COngrats, it is a beauty for sure. The Eastman I bought for my stepdaughter's 16th sure as heck impressed me!

I think I understand that. In my case I don’t need a dried size because I don’t need a lot of volume. There’s gotta be someone out there who is ready to trade with you. I guess in the meantime just keep playing it as much as you can stand and maybe that addy will settle into something that you’ll like better.

I've modified the bracing/bridge and installed ports on my E10D - as dreads go, it doesn't get much better to my ear. Mahogany and Adi work great for the big body!! That one sent a 2014 D18 and a 2016 D18GE packing!
