That's better. Here's one of the Aspen next to Mr. Wilson. They're both 70's vintage guitars. Can't wait to get the Aspen back with a remounted bridge and compare her depth to Wilson's out-front presence.

So I ended up with the Wilson after all! It was reposted on CL for $125 and it was definitely worth the trip. Not as deep as my Aspen, but HOODADDY, it's loud! Ok, everyone roll strum an e minor while I attempt my first pic post..........

Beamer, that Xaviere cedar top looks sweet! For under $200, I would almost pull the trigger and risk not loving it out of the box. I've bookmarked the page. I don't shop brands, but do like to compare my 70's era Aspen to any mid level Yamaha. Once I get the bridge plate fixed, it might even stand up against my friend's Martin...especially after several beers.

I agree that hollow-body electric is the best of both worlds. There's an Ibanez AG95 at a local music store ($650) that's a thing of beauty and sounds absolutely sweet ... definitely on the G.A.S. list.

It's a sublime sickness!

If you go acoustic electric you reall have teh best of both worlds.

You sound like your ready to drop a lot of $$ on a new guitar. If you can get over the name brand stigma, I think you should really give http://www.guitarfetish.com/Xaviere-Aco … c_361.html a look. These are some pretty awesome guitars and they dont break the bank. You could buy 3 new guitars for one Martin or Taylor. they aslo have great electrics if you wnated just to pick one up for fun. Russes just bought a great Les Paul style guitar from Rhondo music.

However, if you want to spend money on that Martin, Im not saying that sucks either! LOLOL

check out this thread about the guitar I bought my son.

Electrics are not a step up from an acoustic. It is simply a different style of guitar.

Taylors are really good guitars!,but you sound like you want an acoustic.

i used to own a wilson semi acoustic, never had any probs only traded it in for a strat. still own and play a wilson bass, (with the original pick-ups) must have been made in the 70's as there are deep ruts where the previous owner had been wearing one of those huge crosses the metal guys used to wear back then, i wonder what happened to mine?

i wasn't aware they were still in business either....
