Like Earl, I had a Rainsong OM years ago, it wasn't as good as the modern RS guitars. More recently I've owned a Shorty and a WS, they were sold shortly after the Emeralds showed up on my door step, not saying one is better than the other, just what i prefer. My experience has been that you can get a nice wood guitar that competes tone wise with my X20, but it will cost you at least twice as much. I was playing the X20 yesterday for a couple hours, it is a special guitar that impresses every time I pick it up. I'm hoping to add one of the new X7's to my wall soon. You already appreciate the CF guitars it looks like, so you gotta try one RP....maybe find an owner near you??
