If you like the sound of CA acoustics I suggest you give a McPherson Sable a test drive if you ever get the opportunity. I can only go by my memory, but my memory says that they had similar tonal characteristics.
Your assessment is quite likely since the same man, Ellis Seal who was the guy behind CA until closure, also designed the Sable and Touring when he resurfaced with McP during the time he was there.
