Anybody own a Takamine GD-20-NS?

Still looking and comparing various guitars for fingerpicking intermediate level for purchase. Definitely considering guitars suggested here and thank you for that! Came across the following article ranking the Takamine GD-20-NS number one out of several picks. I am well aware of the adage you get what you pay for, so at $330.00 seems too good to be true that this would be such a good guitar. I can afford much more than that but it does peak my interest.

I'm also aware that writers can get freebies etc for promoting things (I was offered a free fishing camp stay to promote the resort when I was a newspaper columnist). Not saying that's the case but you never know.

Thoughts?

I see now the model I posted is not their best by a long shot.
