Olson makes, at least IMO, the most beautiful guitar out there.

BTW, has anyone had any experience with a rosewood neck acoustic?

Thank you, Felipe.
I agree that Olsons are among the most beautiful guitars. I think the shape of the SJ is very harmonious -- it looks like a "modernized" OM but yet retains the vintage vibe.
I actually played the guitar that is available. The rosewood neck looks beautiful and it's a great fit with the rest of the guitar.
In practical terms, I thought it made the guitar a bit neck heavy. As for sound, I did not detect anything particularly special.
That being said, I still wanted one -- but the few remaining pieces are reserved for Jim's "special" guitars.
