I'm finding that it's a struggle to find a top as nice as my old SC 10-top. Even the artist tops don't measure up. I've seen some PS tops that do, for sure.
On the other hand, it’s always a “beauty/eye of the beholder” thing with tops folks like, colors, trim, etc.
I’m more or less in the “I really like nice, but I’m totally open to different kinds of nice and I don’t need awesome” camp these days. I used to be pickier, but it stopped mattering to the degree it used to for me.
I didn’t even pick my PS models for their looks - for example, I’d never have ordered the quilt top on my CU24 30th PS. But the guitar played and sounded SO GOOD I had to have it! And Jack Gretz and Paul Smith picked out the wood for my PS acoustic; I wasn’t there. Just wasn’t crucial to me to sort through a buncha wood, though I will say they certainly picked some nice stuff, and I’m glad I left it to their choice!
