A Nick Lucas takes in a whole lot of territory. Gibson made something like 6 different versions with different body shapes, different body woods, even a different number of frets. About the only thing that remained constant was the deep body. I have had experience with a couple of them but not every flavor.
Eventually though I ended up with an early-1930s Kay Kraft version. A bit more attitude than the NL and it worked better for the way I approach a guitar. Also a lot cheaper.
