Yeah, I'm still in the process of saving up, but I've got it narrowed down to a a HD-28V and 710. The Taylor 710 is about $1000 cheaper than the Martin.

I hope you are actually playing these guitars and not just buying on reputation. In my opinion there is a drastic difference in the necks of these guitars. Martin has that v shaped neck, which I can't stand, and Taylors tend to be little thin to me. Still 2 solid instruments. Personally I would try to get the Martin without the v neck. I just think Martin builds to a higher quality standard. I have visited Martin's factory in Pa. (anyone can) and seen their operation first hand. It is impressive. Also, Taylor has been using the 3 piece neck on all models below the 800 series (I think). For that kind of money I want a 1 piece neck. The wood joints just jump right out at you.

Yeah, I'm playing them. What's holding up my decision is the tone. I can't decide between the sweet-sounding Taylor or the "whoosh" of the Martin.

I never noticed a V-shaped neck, myself.

I would smash my Larrivee, the love of my life, if I could poop in every Taylor ever made.

I completely agree. unfortunately alot of people that see dave want a taylor. the quality of taylor guitars is really shitty. if you play with band i can see why people would want a taylor. but if you play acoustic shows...dont get one. they are one of the weakest sounding acoustics ive ever played.
