Before you buy it, plug it in first and see what it sounds like miked. I've only liked about half of the Taylors I've ever heard plugged in without any major sound manipulation, ie Avalon, Fishman EQ Pre-amp, etc. I'm not completely dogging them I'm just saying be careful.

If you're going to spend that much, see if you can find some of the higher-end Tacomas to play on and compare them right there or CA Legacy guitars. For around $900-1k those Legacies are THE sweetest guitars I've ever heard, such flat response. They aren't too bassy or tinny or midrange-laden, just a nice even sound. Yum.

My apologies for skimming. Have you tried out any Takemines or Seagulls?
