Can anyone tell me about these? Are they rare, valuable, etc? Do they have a good sound? Is the Englemann top solid?

Anyone else have one of these? I'm trying to decide between this and a '99 Collectors.

they are pretty rare and they are pretty nice. If you can get one go for it.

I have a 99 Collector's and although it is a beautiful guitar, the sound is not the best. I just don't think the African Waterfall Bubinga laminate top vibrates like a good spruce does. I like the XLR plug in though. Plugged in, it's the best sounding guitar I have. If you have a chance, play the 2 back to back.
