I have been playing out live more and doing some acoustic stuff.  I tend to be doing lead while the singer plays rhythm.  Some of the songs I have found increasingly difficult to play on a traditional acoustic guitar.  So I picked this up.

Crafter Hybrid.  Its has a Kent Armstrong P90 and LR Braggs Piezo.  Feels more like and electric.  Should really cool plugged in but not must tome unplugged which is fine for this situation.

Back and neck and mahogany and the top is rosewood.  I played a Taylor T5.  While the T5 has a greater variety of tones, the pure acoustic tone on this was far superior than the Taylor T5.  The Crafter also has a slight arch top, so the guitar feels a little more substantial.  The T5s I played were all flat tops and felt "small."

Nice looking instrument.  I had thought of buying one but it was nearly impossible to find even online or anywhere within a reasonable distance from us, so I went with the Godin A6 Ultra.  Love the concept, and the thinner body still sounds very "acoustic guitar" unplugged, while not tweaking my bad shoulders with a too thick body.  Enjoy!
