Larry,
I sooo agree with you that a guitar is a multidimensional experience. With my new luthier built guitar, I simply am astounded at the vibration against my chest, and the sound differences I am hearing as it does open up. The experience for me has almost been undescribable...I'm in absolute heaven when I play and feel and hear the guitar. And I have to say, for me, a very different experience from the 000-16SGT that I owned. It didn't feel "Alive" like this guitar.
The guitar truly touches us on some many levels of our senses...we are all so lucky to be able to play such an amazing instrument...
