It's nice and smoothe but has a different feel than a gloss finished neck. My '07 Legend 1717 has the rubbed neck. I guess the w597 would be similar if it has the hand rubbed urethane neck. | ||

Joined: February 2004 Posts: 1634 Location: Warren,Pa. | I say you can't be sure if it has XLR unless you know what preamp it has. Most had the Optima which, of course, has XLR; however, some had Op24+C. In that case, 1/4" out only. Only one like this that I remember was a ME model, but there may have been others. Sorry to be on topic. John <>{ | ||

Joined: January 2008 Posts: 108 Location: Cheyenne, Wyoming | My 591 is similar to the 597 with single sound hole as opposed to multi. It has a hand rubbed neck that I saw described somewhere as "vintage v". Vintage or not, it is a "v" and I like it. The Optima preamp has xlr. | ||
