Despite what I've said in other posts to the contrary, I find I'm now really wanting to buy myself a quality electro acoustic, and *HAD* narrowed things down to either a Martin or a Taylor.
However, I've been reading recently that MANY new Martin owners have been complaining about the poor build and set up quality of their instruments. (I have no personal experience or knowledge of this - just what I've been reading on various guitar groups I belong to.)
So, assuming I want a Taylor, and I have a limited budget of between £600 - £1,500 (UK), can any of you offer advice on which model etc?
I fully understand that I should go out, try a few, and see what suits, but I just wanted some general thoughts from you more expert players before I do, so I have a baseline of knowledge to start from.
