I agree completely, that's why I said i like granny on the Taylor and I don't like Stay on the Martin :lol: I always liked it more on the chet, but it does sound better on the taylor than the martin.
And some songs sound bad ass yet different on both.

i w3as just saying i didnt specify on the Chet, where I do agree, those songs and a few others sound best on the chet, Stay just sounds like ass to me on the martin, much rather hear it on the taylor.

checkii wrote:another thing I was told is that Martin hand rubs their finish on all their guitars where as Taylor sprays and cooks all of theirs so they can pump out more gutiars faster. Can this be an important factor? I never really thought anythign of the finish.
taylor uses some special uv friendly finishes that are supposedly thinner yet more durable and environmentally friendly......u can check it out on their site
