I know that the current AD17 black top's have Walnut back & sides. is yours before the switch to walnut (and has Ovangkol, like mine)? I'd probably be happy with either, but I've definitely been enjoying the ovangkol.

definitely impressed. And it's definitely a different sound than my old 1997 Taylor 414. But honestly, I haven't played too many other recent Taylors, so I can't provide a good comparison. But I really like what I'm getting from the AD17.
Honestly, the biggest adjustment for me is the neck. My old Bourgeois sort of had a soft V neck. And the Taylor feels a slightly flatter and wider. (it's definitely slightly wider at 1 3/4, while my Bourgeois was 1 23/64). But I figure in another few days, my hands will adjust and this will be the new normal :)
