My local guitar tech has seen the wildwoods over the years. He said that they are getting rarer and rarer because the way they were made, they didn't hold up good ocver the years. The quality wasn't all there.

Played both in Wunjo Guitars London on Saturday.

I was REALLY impressed with the build quality and feel. I think I preferred the overall sounds of the Corronado 2, but both were very well set up, and felt grreat. Neck wasn't chunky, but wasn't too thin either. Sounds were good, and diverse. The knobs felt a bit cheap, and I don't like the modern style tuners, but everything else was spot on. I was asked to turn it down a couple of times (while the sales guy sold a beginner a USA Strat lol), so didn't get to really stretch their legs, but overall very good.

PMT had a brown Coronado in yesterday and I had a quick 20 minutes play on it. Neck felt great, sounded lovely but definitely not the same as the originals. Really tempted by it though, some great sounds in there. When you turn up the gain it has a lot of grunt about it. The necks look amazing but the I'm a B&B fan.
