I play a Taylor 910 that handles as well as any Gibson SJ-200, Martin, or Collings. Purchased in 1996, its held its own and not deteriorated. I had an Ovation prior to the Taylor and it was fine but nowhere near as good as the Taylor. I sold an Everly Bros, a J-45 and an L-7 after I began playing the Taylor.

The fit and finish on Taylors is excellent. Bob Taylor made and still makes great contributions to the industry, such as the introduction of new, more affordable tonewoods, Taylors are very playable guitars.

I've owned and sold Taylors, including two full Legends of the Fall Brazilian rosewood four-piece sets, and a custom koa 512 that Taylor regional representative Aaron Diablo helped design.

I have friends who love theirs. I'm glad you have found the guitar that excites you. My opinion on Taylors is my opinion. To my ear, bolt-on necks lose a small something in tonal quality.

IMO, Taylors stand up to anything on the market for tonal quality, feel and action.

The only brand I’ve found to be better than taylor was from a boutique Luther shop in California. I want to say it was called a Santa Rosa, but am not certain. I only played it once about 15 years ago. Incredible instrument with an incredibility high price.
