Ken Miller acoustic steel guitars

These guitars have some unusual bracing based on Kasha's ideas among others. It'd been interesting to compare it side-by-side with an X-braced Weissenborn.

Those are very nice looking guitars, but I was puzzled by some of the following passage from his site:

"I have also overcome many of the shortcomings of "resonator" guitars - such as rattle, poor volume, and amplification."

As far as the rattle and poor volume, I wonder with which resos he is familiar? As he ever played a Scheerhorn, Clinesmith, Meredith, Harper, Beard, etc.?

Sure doesn't sound like it...
