Personally, I continue to be glad I bought my Crowdster. Nothing sounds as good as it does, and presents as few problems, on a loud stage. it feels much better in the hand than any alternative I've tried out. Tom stands by his work like nobody else I know.
I think the Fenders, though over-priced like all Fenders, sound quite good for what they are.

I pretty much agree with this. I own a Crowdster ++. I love the electric pickups; really love the combined piezo + neck pickup. The neck is amazing. I really like the jazz tones out of the neck pickup. The nut is 1.72" I think. The Crowdster has an acoustic feel, and that is what I like. Did I mention the neck is amazing.Several years ago another poster noted the sustain in the Crowdster. I had not thought about that, but it does have a lot more sustain an acoustic.
I haven't played the Fenders. I would be interested in doing so. Their acoustic side sounds really good in the videos I have watched.
I bought a Taylor T5 the second year they were out and played it for many years. It played great, but I just migrated away from its tone. The Crowdster ultimately replaced it. They are expensive, no doubt, and really pretty.
