Just curious.

They all sound the same to me

the leo kottke 12, the gc8, and the 8 string baritone. tonally, they stand above the taylor herd for me. i like guitars with character and these three have it imo.

A BTO 616 that I never thought I would bond to.....but it's nice. One of the nicest I have played of any brand, but this is only a personal opinion.

I don't have a Martin or a Gibson so it's alright to say something about those?

Almost seems that folks go out of their way to be negative about some brands, especially Taylor guitars.

My custom Sinker Redwood over Macassar Ebony. Sweetest tone of any guitar I've ever heard.

Probably the GC mini. Keep in mind I used to own a Sinker Redwood/ Brazilian Rosewood Custom Shop GA

Mostly the ones with cedar top and/or rw/cocobolo back gets my ears' attention.

Loving the 320 right now.

My 2001 314ce LTD (Imbuia Back and Sides) .... Because it has aged nicely. It will never be a strummer like my Gibson J160-E but it has a sweet sound !!

I have been a fan of the 310, the 810 and recently the new 320.
Taylor does make a great guitar, but I am a Martin/Larrivee/Guild guy.

714 cedar/rosewood. I had a 2001 model that was pretty amazing. I occasionally played other 714's and they never compared

My 718e has adirondack GO hybrid bracing with bone nut/saddle and has a sound unlike any other Taylor I have owned or played. It has a deep sustained bass sound while still maintaining the Taylor balanced sound. It is also a Jumbo size but can be played fingerstyle or strummed.

1987 812. Deep, rich tone with sustain and overtones to rival any Goodall; and lots of volume for a small bodied guitar. This one has a 1 7/8" nut which was likely a special order by the original purchaser. 1987 must have been a really good year for Taylor as I had an outstanding '87 815 with great tone and feel that I sold only because I prefer a wider than 1 11/16" neck; and I have an '87 855 that is an outstanding 12 string, and I've played a lot of them over the years.

I really like the Grand Symphony size - great balance of bass and treble with the bigger lower bout dimension. My 2009 FLTD 416ce is great, but I wish it was a little more lightly built/braced.
