Just curious Dave, what price did you shell for that Taylor? After looking for a new acoustic I had to back off from that deep price of a Taylor (cutaway w/electronics). The action was sublime though. These old hans are starting to complain (loudly) at the action on my Seagull S6+CW. It sounds really nice live and recorded (w/elec or acoustically) especially for the price, hand made in N. America, solid top and back, BUT it can't compare to the feel of a Taylor. I still may be in the market for a new guit.
