I think he mentioned the tone as well.

The 000-15M sounded muffled and short-sustained to me, the HD-28 was bassy with what felt like a giant hole in the sonic spectrum where the midrange ought to be, and the 00-28VS, while certainly the nicest-sounding to my ear, seemed very plain in its sonic signature, as though the essence of the note was there, but without the detail or overtones that draw me in to a guitar's tone.
I think the point is that a hand made guitar may indeed be lighter built and more responsive than a mass built one. I have read that that is because the mass built ones need to LAST so there are not warranty issues down the road.
