Thanks! It sure feels light, I need to find my scale to weigh it. I'll post that later.

Very nice! The Modern is my favorite guitar I’ve ever played.

Thanks! I had a Modern a few years ago, but just didn't gel with it. This one felt like home right away.

I'm liking the Aldrich, but only have a couple hours on it. So far, I've had no thoughts of swapping it out. The output is high, but doesn't feel over-the-top to me.

Thanks! I wasn't actually looking for a Satin model, but this one really caught my eye.

Yours looks REALLY good! I like those offset inlays, too.

It is a great-playing guitar. The 16" fretboard radius is flatter than I'm used to, but it's working out fine for me.
