I've played Olson and Ryan's that I thought my Doerr from early 2006 was better... I personally would rather have a Doerr with the works, custom woods and many upgrades, than a standard base guitar for more money from some builders... I'm not going to make the statement that Doerr is better than Olson or Jeff Traugott, but I will say that great guitars are great guitars and you do not have to pay $$,$$$$ for one.
We have to stop talking about this... I couldn't sleep last night I was so excited... 1 day down, 729 to go
