My biased opinion comparing Blackbird and the other carbon guitars

I was just at a dealer in D.C. that carries both us and Rainsong and had a chance to compare with their latest offerings. The Super OM and Rainsong are very different guitars. The voice on the Super OM is warmer and louder. The hollow neck, lighter top and body and unique design makes the Super OM closer to a boutique guitar meaning it is very responsive acoustically while the Rainsong is built heavier. This makes the Rainsong a good acoustic/electric, but curiously it feeds back more than the Super OM because of the center soundhole design (I believe) and likely the electronics system as well.

Another difference is access to the higher frets is also more difficult on the Rainsong because there is a trad. neck joint. They make fine guitars but in the end I do not feel they take advantage of the design flexibility of composites
