Topic: What about the smell?
I know that the way an acoustic guitar smells shouldn't really effect its playability, but has the way a guitar smelled ever influenced a buying decision? I fell for my latest guitar because the clean smell of cedar came wafting up through the sound hole whenever I played it. A friend just got a Martin with an Adirondack (red spruce) top and the scent of that guitar is intoxicating, and it's absolutely distinct from the smell of sitka or other types of spruce. Do other people notice this, or am I just a weirdo?
