Burner or Truth. I am considering one of thes frames, any feedback out there on either of these?
Thanks in advance.

Truth is a very light, very responsive, smooth ride. Especially with a Romic twin tube shock, in
place of the Fox Float standard shock Martin

Then you get to deal with Ellsworth's infamous customer service. Oh joy.

You will have to deal with Ellsworth.

Keep your fingers crossed.

If you go with the Ellsworth, you should take steps (like buying from somebody who has a good
history of going to bat for their customers) to insulate yourself from Ellsworth's customer
"service". I don't want to demonize them - just observe that, in my unfortunate personal experience
they are way, way out of their league when trying to deal with the general public.
