Kramster is a true gem in the desert and really goes out of his way to make the visit special and satisfying for anyone interested in carbon fiber guitars, but anyone visiting should also take time to ask him to play the piano. Incredible musician and great guy to visit.

I'm really gonna have to find a way to try an X30 someday. Every description I read of it (and every video and sound clip I hear of it) suggests it would be a great sounding guitar for me, given my preferences. I had an X20 and liked it, but ultimately like the current model X7 even more and I sold the X20 when I found myself always picking up the X7 and almost never the X20. But part of that was a certain zingy high end on the X20 that I really didn't love. The problem for me is the SIZE of the X30. I recently did some cheap guitar shopping and the best sounding cheap guitars I found were dreads, but I just can't play a dread for any period of time comfortably. I know everyone says the X30 is incredibly comfortable FOR A GUITAR OF ITS SIZE, but I'm just dubious I'd be comfortable playing a guitar of that size, even if designed perfectly for comfort. But, hey, I'd love to play one someday and find out. Definitely not a guitar for me to buy without playing one first. The Sable sounds like it could also be up my alley, but those things are PRICY. I suspect any such guitar would still be a #2 to my X7, so there are limits to how much I'd spend on a #2. My fallback would be going back to wood (as long as I have an X7 to leave out all the time, I guess it wouldn't be that bad to have to case a wood guitar during times of humidity extremes) and probably something fairly economical that I know I like, like something in mahogany from the Martin 15 series. Which, depending on which model, I'd be spending half or less of the cost of a Sable. If I liked an X30 enough I could maybe stretch for an in-stock, just carbon model - no veneer. This is probably well into next year at the earliest in any case. I don't spend much time thinking that far ahead, but this post got me thinking again... -Ray |

The x30 fits your lap like your favorite pair if worn in shoes. I am positive no small amount of witchcraft went into it's design process.

I heard that... Brenda Lee's comin' on strong.
Nice review of the experience from Winzzy, and very gracious (once again) of Kramster. |
