Congrats on scoring an amazing guitar! I have always like the 600 series, but I think that the 1990's ones are something really special. Their design is slightly different from the more recent ones and the woods they were able to get back then were a bit higher quality than what they get now. For example, you will notice that the neck is carved out of a single block of wood and is not three pieces glued together. Also, 1995 Taylors came with the famous pink poodle case that was actually made by Taylor at their El Cajon factory. To me, modern Taylors are great guitars, but the 1990s are becoming the golden era for Taylors.
