One of my 414ce is a 2007 Koa the other is a new V brace 414ce-R I put a bone saddle in it and it's quite impressive. It projects better than my 2002 Cocobolo 810. Don't know if it's the V brace or the bone saddle. I also have a 717e GP and it is cat daddy. No bling but it booms and is a real pleasure to play I dig pretty hard with the pick and my buddies ask me to turn it down when we play unplugged. It is my go to unplugged guitar. If Andy is responsible for it he hit the mark. Again I always spend some time playing guitars with a buddy at the shops and almost never buy on the same day. If it feels right the second trip it probably is.
