X7 - Thoughts on the 5th Day
So I received my Emerald X7 on Tuesday.. The attention to detail on these is amazing.. from my first strum it reminded me of the Taylor sound, it’s happy and begs to be played!
Although it’s the smallest of the Emerald guitars it produces really deep and intricate sound! I’m really impressed with this beauty!! I thought that it might have a plastic or tinginy sound, but I was way wrong! It has a familiar sound that to the untrained ear couldn’t differentiate between a solid wood guitar. So far I’m really impressed and have become a Carbon convert!

Glad you're digging it. I'm into my fifth month with mine and all of my other acoustics have flown the coop. I had an X20 I also loved, but the X7 is the one I was constantly reaching for. The short scale is awesome to me for everything other than playing with a capo up around the 5th fret or higher, but I pretty rarely ever do that anyway. It sounds as good or better than the X20, if not quite as big, but it sounds plenty big and loud for my purposes. AND, it's small and travel friendly.
Keep enjoying it! -Ray

Congratulations. You have just joined a very happy crew of X7 players. I have a thin-bodied electric 7 and it's become my guitar of choice.

Glad you're happy with your X7 Chris.
Good thing, too, because the Rainsong sold the day after you told me you won! A true win-win  Anyway, be forewarned, once you go carbon.........
