So, will be coming into some money, and looking at some guitars to flesh out the stable. I just donated an old Ovation to my girl's school, as it just never got any work from me. That means there's an empty slot in the picture.
I've never had a high end acoustic, so I have my eye on the Taylor 814CE:

I have a decent Guild (DCE-5), but it's DARK, so might like something brighter like the Taylor signature tone. I could go the 414CE route, but kind of in the guitar 'bucket list' mode, so not in the mood to be penny pinching. In the end, it I can't discern tonally between a 414CE and 814, then I'd certainly do the step down...but I like PRETTY right now.
It's still in my mind to get a hollowbody. This Rich Robinson 335 sounds great:

(Aside: Wildwood does examples RIGHT...now they post amp and pedal settings with the Serial number demo's)
I am up for alternatives to the Hollowbody, but want high end, rather than something that comes close at 1/2 the price.
Opinions?
