I played that guitar in a shop not long ago. i want one too. I was looking for something small, able to take some jostling around because i want to take it to work to play on my break, i drive a truck. I was looking at a martin backpacker, but i was tremendously underimpressed. that seagull you're talking about has fretwire that's about 10 notches above the backpacker in quality. plus, the guy was gonna throw in a xtra thick gig bag forfree, because i had concerns about stress cracks, exposure to heat and cold etc. it was priced around 200.00 about the same as the martin,but way superior in quality. as far as the distance betwee frets, it wouldn't be that hard to get used to, just for something to play an hour a day.Had good sound, too, and I'm a jumbo size guitar fan
