No question the Rainsong will have the fuller neck, unless you special order the N1 on the OM1000, its now on the way out. The OX will be slimmer more Taylorlike. You need to play the Rainsong neck and see if you like it. You should be able to find one somewhere. It is the same profile as the N2. I think that will be very telling, if that works for you go Shorty. If not the OX will be a great choice. The quality control with both companies is very high with great setups out of the box. A truss rod is nice but really not that necessary. Go with what feels right.
