The roundback takes a bit of getting used to as it tends to slide down your legs when you play it but once you get it its easier to play. Also, since this model has really un-orthodox soundholes, some of the highs and lows are different than a tradition centre-soundhole guitar but try out an Ovation when you go to the guitar shop. Mine cost me $900 but there are others that can run for as little as $349.
That one sounds good. Also roundback are more comfortable to play if you're standing up, as they don't have the same sharp rims which jut into your groin or push the body of the guitar away from you when you're standing up. They do, however, slide around like little bitches when you sit with them.
