I have played some of his guitars over the years and in my opinion his tone is more consistent than ever and as espectacular as the designs.

Congratulations having those guitars in the same place to try and compare and hope that you find the perfect new home for them.
II can only agree that Matsuda is a guitar making genius and there is no idea that he cannot turn into a guitar that breaks every pre conception of what a guitar should look like. He is undoubtedly the greatest of Somogyi's ex students and the one who has gone the furthest to develop his own aesthetic style that is totally different form his former master's style.
