There's a little more about the situation with my 212 not mentioned in this thread, but I'm good with it anyway... nothing that can't be cured.

Thanks all for your wonderful comments! She is a bit on the ample side so I do "choke up" a little from the back end. Just let it hang off my right side a bit more.
One thing I definitely prefer over the old Pacemaker is the balance. The roundback bowl just makes them really neck heavy. The Epi is much better in that respect.
Actually tuned it down to D today. A first for me on any guitar. Still trying to get used to it but thought I might as well try. The old fingers are getting a little stiff these days.
Wouldn't mind trying out the CE model with the cutaway and electronics maybe sometime if one popped up. Looking into getting an under saddle type pup for this one.
Thanks again!

This thing is built. Take a close look at the last photo, especially just inside the sound hole and you'll see what looks like part of a 2x4.
I included the side and 3/4 shots to show there is absolutely no belly bulge and no bridge separation.
I have it tuned to standard pitch and it has been since the day I got it. I have no doubt it will hold up well.
