Nope. I think you are setting yourself up for a fall by even considering the X+... Discount it. It will be miserable.
At least with the 450, you have a little more scope to stow things a little more considerately in regard to the vintage guitars, without worrying about them either not fitting or getting damaged in and out of a small space.
450 each and every time.
