Everything has already been said ...
UTILIZATION
Handle very nice, even a pure happiness.
What really struck me and where I pays great attention as soon as I take one instrument, balance, and there really, this guitar is perfect ... at least on my knees, I asked, I let go, she stayed right. While for some this is probably not an important detail in my registry (fingerstyle), using many percussion movements / taping and not constantly both hands holding the instrument, it is essential that at least we do not play strapped.
For guitarists fingers end, the frets are a bit big, I had big problems in the nerves of the fingers, index mainly on long sessions it becomes unplayable for me and even for several days, a luthier found the nut enough widened.
SOUNDS
The day I had bought, I spent half a day in a store to try a bunch of guitars, the Larrivee, Takamine, Cole Clark, Yamaha, Gibson and so on, none satisfaisais me when I took one, I made an agreement, in my head it was already mine. A tremendous clarity and precision acoustics, beautiful arpeggios in the taping as well as open tuning very serious, harmonics emerge to perfection. It is probably less effective strumming.
on the other hand, once connected, for me it is a disaster, the expression system is horrible for me, Americans love, tastes and colors ... We have a huge bump in the midrange, the sound is completely distorted, really puke.
OVERALL OPINION
I bought it in 2008, sold in 2012 for a guitar luthier.
This is the first guitar I sold it in 20 years of practice, it was difficult because she is already beautiful violin, but now, as time has passed, the hindsight and experience, the sound, even acoustics satisfaisais me more, I understand now the many comments I've read guitarists did not like Taylor sound without a lot of character in the end, but it sounds great there's no problem.
And I wanted to turn this system expression that I find really bad or even shameful for a guitar of this price, do not rely on video demos Taylor, it's not all that it transmits as his. I had brought home from the luthier that I bought a guitar, in which we did a lot of testing, it installed the K & K Sound Trinity on his guitars, there is a really good gear that transmits the best acoustic instrument.
So now, for the impersonal and embedded electronics, it was useless that I care. I strongly advice to those who like Taylor, buy pure acoustic models, and install electronics such as K & K that do not require trapping on the guitar and therefore no impairment of the instrument and sound light years ahead of the expression system, embedded systems because of origin, the day they make a new one, the coast of the former is in free fall and therefore very difficult to sell, I don ' buy one more scratch-mounted electro today.
I put 8/10 because anyway, level violin finish, balance, comfort and acoustics (for those who like Taylor) is the high-end there's no problem, they innovate in many ways .
