How prone is the Anthem StagePro to feedback? I have an Element StagePro in a Rainsong CHOM that I suspect needs replacing, and am wondering whether I should go for the Anthem…(apologies from the thread hijack).

This was my first thought, too. Or maybe a used H-DR, which is a discontinued model. I like the warmth of the H series more than any other in the line. The V series is absolutely worth a real good look, though, especially because it looks the part more than any other.
Edit: I didn’t love my Sable…I felt it was mich quieter than others, in spite of it being incredibly balanced. The X30 might be ok, though the low E string is tough to tame.

People have mentioned the vintage series dreadnought and the hybrid dreadnought from Rainsong but there is also the all graphite DR1000 a/e. I happen to have one for sale in the classifieds;just throwing it out there. Even if I didn't have a horse in the game though, I'd still recommend trying out that guitar as well as the others that have been mentioned here so far.

As for any feedback issues with the Anthem (vs the Element) due to the mic, there is very little issue. The Anthem mic is dialed in via a slider which goes from ostensibly all UST to all mic. I tend to have it dialed a little bit more toward the UST which gives it a brighter sound. I dial-in even more UST on the delicate fingerstyle ballads which need that brighter sound. The only time I favor a little more mic than UST is on any percussive songs that require body taps to be heard through the PA and that happens very little. Quote:

I have a 1950 Martin 00-18. It’s the best sounding and most responsive guitar I’ve ever played, with incredible head room. My RainSong Concert Hybrid Orchestra Model 12 Fret has a similar tone and clarity, low action, responds like the Martin to the lightest touch, and can be played equally as hard. I love the 1 3/4” nut width, 12, and it’s very comfortable to play. While the X20 in my signature has great ergonomics, it’s heavier, has less headroom, and I prefer the sound of my RainSong.

I completely agree with PLT on this - I've owned pretty much all the major CF guitars, and the closest I've come to the Martin sound (I play a D35) is the earlier Composite Acoustic Legacy. I've owned 3 so far, one went to Uganda with my son on a missions trip... average temp 120 degrees. Came home unscathed! I travel around a little circuit teaching at YMCAs, and in the winter in Central NY it gets cold and really dry. Leaving the CA in the trunk, and not worrying about it - PRICELESS! My best (so far) is a 2007 Legacy AE (the green one), both plugged and unplugged it has a big Martin-esque tone. Strings do have a lot to do with it too. If you can find one don't hesitate... they are the berries! Best of luck on your search.
