I've played a lot of guitars in my 20 years of playing experience. This Taylor guitar is among the best I've ever played.
The sound is as big as a dreadnought guitar with a sitka spruce top should be. It has good sound sustain and good harmonics. Playability is good, but I've played guitars with better playability at cheaper prices.
I decided to return the guitar to Thomann because it did not meet my expectations. Despite the good sound, the finishing details and the playability were not good for a 1100 euro guitar.
I'm deciding on another Taylor guitar to buy because I've always wanted one. But I didn't decide which one yet.
