| I bought a Taylor for my daughter and I think it is a great guitar. Besides, they are selling a bunch of them, so they must be doing something right.
I agree Ovation could help their cause by getting their name/instruments out there more often and with more visibility. |

They even have a commercial bragging that they got a loan from a Hedge Fund! :eek:
There is a Taylor on every stage at every music award show on the tube.
They have name recognition right up there with Martin, Fender and Gibson.
The average American knows nothing of Larivee or Collings, or Adamas...
But they know about Taylor cuz every acoustic guitar they see on TV is a Taylor.
This does not mean that a Taylor is better than my Morgan Monroe woodbox, or any other woodbox.
It just means that they hired people who may know nothing about guitars... But they know Marketing.
ooo! I found an Ovation on the Tube!
You gotta wait to hear "Every Neil Young song you have ever Heard! :cool: |

| In the end, I think that the "warm runny spoo" is what the musician produces, not the guitar.
I have seen a great guitarist make a $99 laminated guitar sing like a bird and captivate a room.
I own several brands of guitars, but I don't feel obliged to defend one guitar against another since it is only opinion. Everybody is welcome to get what they like best. |
