I'm also waiting to hear from someone who's played one...My Boucher is just unreal playing and sounding...a rosewood lovers dream I don't think I could ever depart with. I'm re-amazed every time I pick it up. But I love the less complex more fundamental tone of a good maple guitar and the torrified maple Grand Reserve's sound great on the internet clips...really piano-like. I might have to keep it under my bed because there's no more room in my closet for another guitar, but I can tell you I'm Jonsen for a Grand Reserve HG-166 or an SG-161.
