That's like asking whats better, blondes or brunettes?

I own both Martins & Taylors. I have various pickups in all my
acoustics. For years my D35 was my go to live strummer. I had
used my D41 a lot live as well. After trying a buddies ES equipt
Taylor I had to get one. I have an 814CE that has been my main
plugged in acoustic ever since I got it.

The Taylor couldn't touch any of my Martins for miced up recording.
However, The Taylors w/ the ES system simply wipe the floor w/
almost anything else I've used so far............until recently............








I recently purchased a Larrivee SD50 after picking it up &
strumming it in the store. It is an absolute cannon. I put a
K&K Pure Western Mini system in it & it is now hogging up
a great deal of stage time normally occupied exclusively by
the Taylor.


Of the 2, Martin or Taylor, if you're going to be mainly using it
for live application, I would lean towards the Taylor. I'm one
who likes the ES system very much. If you think you'll be
recording your acoustic, I would get the best sounding acoustic
you can afford, regardless what it says on the headstock.

Happy hunting.

I like my Taylor 710ce with the ES. It's aging quite nicely and the boominess of the rosewood is tightening
