Other than the scale it's very plain jane (aka cheap)...amber, no veneer (adding veneer adds about $1K CAN to the cost), no pickup and gigbag only.

I think you'll be very happy with it, in that case. The low B is pretty muscular on my X20-7 at that scale length - I can only dream of what it would sound like on the X30 body.
But, I would have to quibble with your choice of words - there's nothing plain jane about a pure CF Emerald, and certainly nothing cheap about it
I prefer 'classic' and 'less expensive' myself

Ordered it January 9th and have been waiting, somewhat (ha!) patiently (less so when I see them going out to everyone else!), to check it out 'cause I'm also thinking seriously of an X20 with a "DADGAD" fan, thinking 25" to 25.75" (or maybe 26")...'twould be a good Xmas present for meself!
