New Epi Steinberger Spirit

Anybody get one yet? Particularly interested in the 5s (I have one of the older 4s that I love), but also curious about the general sound and feel with Poplar bodies and Grenadilla(?) fretboard. Poplar is lighter than maple, so, neck dive? All I can find about grenadilla is that it's like ebony, and some types are on the endangered list.
