Taylor makes better low end guitars for less. Taylor 110 and 214 arent that bad.

Most, if not all of the new Taylors have a bolt-on neck. If you look around on the web you'll find quite a few high end makers use the bolt on technology. It allows for easier neck resets. Many Taylor detractors will comment on the use of the bolt-on on neck saying it's cheap and effects the tone, however, after doing some research I have found that luthiers who are well respected by there peers have said otherwise.
