It's still a very nice set but I would keep looking.
RE the cutaway, I find Michael's guitars to all look better without a cutaway.

This is a former build of his, not the specific coco I’ll get. I found that photo on The North American Guitar. However, I find it amusing that you are skeptical to the wood, as I’ve heard Michael has one of the best collections in the world. Marketing? I’m not very experienced on wood, besides look, so I appreciate your info.
