Can't find the right Seagull? Help pls

pics so it happened as they say!

Took a picture of the wood up close, around the edges near the binding the stain is a little weathered but in a 'rustic' fading kinda way, which I like it.

It's the old style logo which I don't mind, have to say the new logo has really grown on me but I still like the old one.

The grain of the wood has an unusual waviness/assymetry to it that wouldn't normally be to my liking, but since the guitar has a unique kinda murmur and chime it feels fitting that it looks imperfect as well.

Haven't plugged it in yet but the tuner works..not a fan of the tuner but seems to hold tune well enough anyway. Hope the electronics work as well!

TonyKgull, hm may give the stereo thing a try myself!

That guitar looks beautiful to me. 

I've used the Q1 system many times on stage.  Through a decent DI box, like a Radial J48 or PZ-DI, that thing will sound fantastic.  My Coastline folk has the Q1, I've used it on stage, and it sound amazing.  They are much better than the specs make them seem I find.

tightplatoon , Ya, the stereo thing has been proven to work.  But it still doesn't happen over night.  If you can leave it in front of a stereo playing music for at least an hour or so a day, several times a week, the best would be every day, then you can shorten the "opening up/aging" process from, say 10 years down to 2 or 3.

Did it with my Takamine I had years ago and I had a luthier tell me he was literally blown away by it's sound.  He couldn't understand how it sounded so good.  It was only after that, that I told him about the stereo thing and he knew exactly what I was talking about.  He said he knew about, and most of his friends knew about it, but he never knew anyone who actually bothered to actually do it; not even him.  He said, after hearing the evidence from my cheap Takamine, he was gonna change that.  LOL.
