It sounds great through my Fishman and is my performing guitar (when we used to be able to perform) because of the great sound and lack of worry. And as I said, from my somewhat limited experience, the H series sounded best. I’m sorry they eliminated it. A cutaway dread would have been my ideal, and I keep wavering on upsizing the OM to a WS, which I find periodically on Reverb.
Ah yes. I know a few local guys and one on AGF who gig with their RainSongs. I suspect it would be the one they went back into the "burning building" to retrieve. I haven't done any gigs since the pandemic either. But, that's what I mainly bought this for. A very good sounding alternative to taking an expensive wooden instrument places where it can get damaged. Frankly, the K&K in the RainSong sounds better than in my wood guitars. I think it would not only be a good alternative, but a better alternative for amplified gigs.

Since these guitars are bullet proof, I wonder if someone would do a straight up trade?
