yeah. this is the one with stainless steel frets which will never wear out. yours is most likely the basic model. Very different. VERY different from this one.
Cool vid, Casey! I have a 2007 Single Cutaway and am surprised how little weight was shaved on this newer version due to the body and neck sculpting. My older SC probably weighs 7 pounds, and this is 6.8??? Hmmm. Piezos can't weigh that much.... The headstock must have some lead in it.
Hey Strand, when I talked about how light it was, it was in comparison to the kind of weight you would expect in a guitar of a similar shape. Even with the more sculpting of the lower horn, the upper bout still has more mass than a Fly's upper horn.
thanks sharing these videos and for posting.

so roughly 3000 bucks? I'm willing to pay that for the features this thing has. so far the greatest guitar I have ever seen

Curious, what was the guitar plugged into, particularly for the piezo pickup? I've heard stock electric amps aren't as good for piezos.

Mags - Randall MTS amp (running Blackface and Plexi modules).
Piezo - that small acoustic combo behind my left knee.

Nice, I own a Parker Fly S2 right now, one of these new SC would be a great mate for her.
