I'm not familiar with Martins, and the naming system is confusing me.

Martin 000C-16SGTNE

000 is the Auditorium size, right? 12/14 Fret. C for cutout.
What does 16SGTNE stand for?

I hate to give up the Taylor playability... but would like a nice nylon for Pop music.
I don't have any personal playing experience but they have a strong following
000 auditorium size, C-cutaway, GT-gloss top, N- nylon, E- electronics.

Dibs? You got me on that one.

Taylor NS52CE may be another option for me.

My Taylor is not bad. I have played some more expensive classicals, that the Taylor sounded better and more so for a steel string style.
