About a month ago I traded my Kentucky for a Flatiron 2MB.
I gotta say, I am absolutely loving it! It definitely has a very different vibe from my F-style. To me, the F-style sounds great at full volume, picking hard, and with chop chords. This one, however, sounds amazing played at low to medium volume. It sounds so round and full, and is perfect for playing at home (especially because I live in an apartment). I've taken it to a few jams, and it does well at small jams but has a bit of a hard time keeping up volume-wise at bigger ones (again with the volume difference between my F-style and this one). It also doesn't hurt that it's real pretty, especially the maple burl on the back and sides.
