solving Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 When I bought my first Gibson I choosed between a SJ-200 TV and a Doves In Flight (which I bought). I LOVED the Doves but the nut width was becoming an issue when I got my J-45. Thats when I realized It was small and I played the J-45 more than the Doves. I got an offer on the Doves and went to the guitar store. They had two go them on the wall. A sunburst and a Natural. I played them both for an hour. I could actually feel a difference between them. I think the sunburst is a better good looking guitar but the natural "choosed me". I can't express enough what a great guitar the Doves was but the nut width became an issue when I compared with the other ones... Now the quest for a new square shoulder has begun.....

As much as I wanted the sunburst I had to go with sound before looks....It just didn't do it for me. So I let my ears decide... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
