How does one even try an acoustic out properly? If I'm playing the guitar, I'm not hearing the same tone a microphone positioned in front of the guitar would pick up.

The guitars after 2013 (I think) will have the E2 pickup system, which I much preferred to the Fishman Matrix. You might want to double check that year, but the E2 system is worth searching out.So, OK, 814CE looks good to me. Any model years to prefer/avoid? Or should I just get a new one?
... I was dead set on a 614. I thought I wanted the bright sound from the maple. After trying a couple, it was just too bright....
I will say this for Taylor guitars: you're not really sacrificing tone if you end up not going for the top-of-the-line model. I've played the whole line at guitar stores multiple times and while the guitars got fancier the higher up you go in the model range, the cheaper guitars hold their own sonically IMHO. I ended up choosing a Breedlove, but Taylor was a close second.
I don't have access to it right now, but I remember it was a Passport Plus series which may be discontinued.Which Breedlove did you get? I am really wanting one of the Concertina bodies in Myrtlewood.
