Emerald X20...getting close!
I couldn't resist posting this. When I awoke this morning and checked my email there was one from Kevin with an invoice with my remaining balance. Now the painful wait dramatically increased. I figure maybe it gets shipped this Friday so I should have it in a week or two. I can't wait to A/B it against the X30 to see which one I prefer. I'll be going over it with a microscope (well not literally) every nook and cranny every note of the fretboard. The pain is real!

Thanks Wicked!
Wut? April 1....nooooooooooooooooooooo! Of that I have no doubt. I am really curious if I'll prefer the X20 or X30 voice. I really dig the X30 so the X20 has its work cut out. |

Congrats! You probably should get the X7 ordered now so you don't have to wait so long.

Congrats! The X20 is nice. I'll be looking forward to your impressions, and hope the wait won't be long now. Hopefully, instead of "this one" vs "that one," you will discover the place that each one fills. I see some "When this new one comes in, I will decide which I like better..." posts from time to time. For me, when a new one comes in, I find myself saying, "I really like this one, TOO!"

Haha you're a funny guy. I have looked at the X7, especially the newer design and the X10 for that matter, I think the body size of them would be a little too small for my personal preference (dreadnought guy here). I don't think I would be able to go smaller than X20 body size.

That nylon X7 being sold by Wicked would fill three (5) needs. First you'd get a chance to try out some nylon. Second, you would not have the maintenance you'll have with the Taylor. Third, you might save a little money since Wicked bought high and is selling low. Fourth, you'd have a beautiful guitar for travel. Fifth, you'd flesh out your jewelry collection with yet another Emerald.
Just saying. |

I did start another thread here about the SLG (Silent Guitar) as a "starter" nylon, before making the CF nylon investment. Sorry for the OT. |

May I ask when you originally ordered?
