...Let me be sure I've said it, I love my 814 and it's sound. I've been using the PB lights and just put a new set on last week. I won't be the least bit disappointed if I don't sell it. I have just found myself GASing for the new 2014's and having to part with my current 814 would be the only way I can make the move.
...hard to compare unless they're side by side.
Ooooh, this first point says it all, friend! I have personally found (the hard way) that selling a known entity for a "desired outcome" can lead to losing a great guitar; then regret! Don't do it. Never sell a guitar based on what you "want" to hear or "think" you'd like.
Here's the
real solution IMHO: buy the guitar you want, and live with the two side by side, taking your time, on your own terms, playing them often. It will not take long (at least hasn't for me) for the one you like better to gravitate to the top. The other, while you may still have pangs to keep it, will be far easier to sell once you've bonded in
real terms (not GAS terms) with the superior tone and fit of the one you reach for. The obvious hardship here is the funds: you'd have to be wiling to float the bill for however long it takes to decide then sell. But IMHO, that is
far cheaper than regret, not to mention the loss of a great instrument for one you had hoped would be. FWIW, I had BTDT, and vowed never to do it again. been happier ever since. Just sayin
