The older you get, if you are anything like me, the more one realizes that less volume has its place.
After decades as a younger player looking for deep bass lines or soloing with a large dynamic range I am good with lighter guitar support.

I have enjoyed trading songs in my local song circles. Sometimes my big sonic guitars just get in the way.
I noticed some of the best players had 00-17 vintage Martins, or some new Washburn, or Ovations etc..... that let them sing away.

I bet that Collings 3 is a pleasure as you ratchet down your output expectations.
It is still nice to have loud output for the times you want or need it. Maybe you can use some finger picks or plug into an amp?
