Is finding a full, balanced, sweet sounding acoustic becoming the exception rather than the norm in high end guitars? Today I walked into my local boutique guitar store and he had just taken in earlier in the week a 98 jf30-12 (maple) and a martin 1931 vintage om28. Both were set up with new strings. The guild ($1100) was thin and soft, and the martin ($4795) was dull and quiet. I was disappointed. Perhaps I can only compare the tone to my d50, which I honestly think is an exceptional instrument. Maybe I'm just getting old but I can't imagine someone putting down that much coin for either of those guitars.
Gotta go...my depends is full.
