I'd go with #2, I think the body wings match up a little better.

Yes, #2 they just got in, it may not be on their website yet.

Edit: I see they have it up now.

funny thing I noticed is the string spacing on #1 vs. mine it seems they have this set up a little tighter , as the strings are on or almost on the dots and you see more bridge pickup hmm...

Well Troy at Wildwood said there's no comparison in person, #2 is much nicer. He also says that it has a bit "snappier" sound, whatever that means. So...............

Number 2 it is!
