Never have I played a Taylor that really knocked me out. Beautiful and fine playing guitars but to my ears a bit thin and bright. Until yesterday when I played the GC8 (Grand Concert). Slotted headstock, rosewood back and sides. Stunning to look at and it sounded beautiful. A finger pickers dream w/ surprising volume for the small body. I've always been happy w/ my modest acoustics. An all mahogany 69 Favilla and a 93 Martin D-16H but the Taylor has me thinking of what I could sell and jonsing hard. Anyone tried or own?
