Have you by chance been able to a/b the Sweetwater HD-28 with a Standard HD-28? Acoustically and plugged in?
I'm really liking the specs on this Sweetwater edition, but it is more expensive - about $600 more than what I could get an HD-28e Retro for, and about $1000 more than the D-18e Retro. (And for that kind of price difference it may be worth dealing with the wider nut in the D-18e Retro)

I have played both but not right next to each other, and neither of them I have played plugged in. I usually play acoustics without any amp since I never play live. We have both of them in our showroom and I could certainly try out both sometime!
