Awesome additions. Is the Touring the 2018 limited edition or did they start doing the honeycomb in late '17? Play them in good health. Look forward to reviews soon!

Of course, tone and playability is most important and these guitars likely have that it spades. As for looks, I’ve never been too crazy about the MacPherson body designs, likely because of the soundhole shape and positioning, whether wood or CF, and based on initially seeing this honeycomb look, not sure I like it either. Jmo.

Hope you enjoy them, Mark.

I'm liking the honeycomb look... better in real life I think.

Would love to read more of your thoughts on the Sable in comparison to the others when you get a chance.

Haha, it should be a rule that if a guitar looks good it has to sounds as good or better!
