Thanks the wm isn't bad either!

They have invented the "GAS" mask I like to call it marriage!

If I never had her I'd own them all!

 

 

I once thought the same thing .... then I realized I'd either be in jail or dead by now.

"I'm close to asking why you didn't choose a 45 Custom. That would bring the hog - maple - rose triangle home".

Said the man who lacked maple, and then continued.

I plan to upgrade the j45 eventually I would love the custom or a paisley.

I do love maple that's why I got the jumbo! The fire bird was by far the best sounding guitar I've played but it was long scale and I could really feel it for some reason I know that the sj is also long scale but it doesn't feel long scale to me not sure why?? Anyways I have never laid hands on a dove so I can't comment but I can say this if you don't mind a long scale guitar I highly recommend the firebird I'm short so didn't work for me! Have you ever played a paisley j45? Not sure why I just love the look of it?

Have you ever played a paisley j45?

Never played the Paisley, but would like to though I prefer paisley on my shirts and ties – (are you listening Nick).

The 2 Firebirds I tried were impressive and won't leave my mind. They were among the richest acoustics I ever played – certainly when talking maple.

 

3 issues remain -

 

The bling – there's a storm of flames over those guitars.

 

The pale top (yes I know the first were darker).

 

And the price – although they might be worth it.

I ask because I can't figure the difference between the F-bird and the modern scalloped Doves. Maybe the latter has heavier braces. . .
