I've tried this before, with wood guitars, but so far they've buzzed, or sounded a bit sickly. The Rainsong sounds good, so far. We'll see how the strings settle in.
I like it a lot so far. Not only for singing in Bb and F, but singing in C using D chords, and getting more open strings...Hey! A "dropped D" capo would give ACTUAL Dropped D - not actually E...
