Hi thanks for the AB, I'll be getting the spruce ☺ Also, what was the first bit you played? It sounds very Neil Young ish? Thanks again.

How does it feel to play? Easy action and thin neck?

What song is used for the first sound test?

The spruce top clearly is much brighter, which works good for the finger style stuff. The mahogany has a mellow warm tone which sounded enter for the pick / strum my stuff. Both sound great, nice playing too : )

The Telephone

More Than A Feeling

When you’re as empty 
as the bottle
you drank from,
discouraged, 
and unwelcome,

gaze high beyond the night sky,
into the swirling cosmos,
drawn close

Look up
You’re home
Look up
at your home
Look up

When you’re as empty 
as the bed
you woke in, 
exhausted, 
and broken,

resolve to dissolve
like mist, like hail,
like the breath you exhale

Look up
You’re home
Look up
at your home
Look up

GS Mini AB Test

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a day, that I could give you
I'd give to you, a day just like today
If I had a song, that I could sing for you
I'd sing a song, to make you feel this way

If I had a tale, that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale, sure to make you smile
If I had a wish, that I could wish for you
I'd make a wish, for sunshine all the while
