The first has a cutaway with 12 frets to the neck, is Grade AAA cedar, and has a neck width of 1 7/8". The second is a cutaway with 14 frets, a top of solid spruce, and a neck width of 1 3/4". Both have a deep bowl. Especially, what are your thoughts on differences in sound and playability for fingerstyle (classic, jazz, whatever...)? Why am I asking? I might buy one without hearing either of them, and have only my (enjoyable) experience with a 1613 to learn from. Thanks. moody, p.i.
