They said they wouldn't do a burst, but Mike at MacNichol guitars seems to have a little pull with the factory and got it done for me. All carbon fiber, no truss rod, very pronounced bass, but not overpowering. Subjective, I know, but probably the best tone and depth of any acoustic I have played. | ||
