Well maybe the guy wanted opinions on a 1000 dollar TAKAMINE not a 300 TAYLOR. Which is my whole point.

well if you do feel the need to buy a guitar, see if you can find one ya like at:

http://www.buffalobrosguitars.com

they have a trade in policy that is unmatched. if you buy a guitar from them, and you decide you want something better after a year later, you can turn in that guitar for 100% of what you paid for it and then pay the remaining amount for the guitar.

hey back to the orginal topic.... i just ordered a martin d16rgt from elderly.com about a month ago. It was 888.00 with no shipping or tax charge. You wont find anywhere that will match that(with the tax). They have guitar techs that inspect all their guitars before they ship them out, mine was checked over by a guy named "Stretch". So if you cant find it check out elderly, and you will save a few bucks, in my case about 130....
