Seriously, I love watching the evolution. I remember being intrigued when Emerald first started getting some attention - but (for me) the aesthetics were a little clumsy, and not especially attractive.
Fast forward to today. My X20 is a great, great guitar. It looks and sounds amazing. It's replaced my 1963 Martin as my go-to guitar.
That took some doing. I love my Martin, but for the first time in nearly 35 years, I'm beginning to question why I'm keeping it.
My hat's off to Alistair and his crew for pursuing, and realizing, their vision.
