I have one and it is a wonderful guitar!

The body is square shouldered and short scale, so it will feel like your Hummingbird when you hold it. The C shaped neck is similar to the J-35 neck (my favorite Gibby neck) and is very comfortable to play. The tone is full, nice note separation, strong but not overpowering bass, and the trebles are nice and fat!

Over the years, I have owned J-45s and Hummingbirds, but I never cared for the tinny sounding trebles. The trebles on the SC CW Supreme are loud and full, so I took it home and couldn’t be happier. I think the big difference, compared to my other Gibsons, is the forward shifted X bracing and torrified top. Whatever it is, I like it!

How does the Gibson Sheryl Crow's Trance Amulet M system sound through an amp or PA?

I haven't played one, but they are some of the coolest looking guitars Gibson makes IMHO.
