SC is another one of the "Martinesque-voiced" builders out there ...that's not a slam by any means as much as it is a qualifier. Voices matter. And each builder has their own "family" voice, so to speak, as it makes them "them."
So Bourgeois, Santa Cruz, Huss&Dalton, Collins, to name some of the "big" small builders, enjoy a loyal following for the quality they produce, and are all definitely worth trying, just as one should try the Taylor model one is interested --
all before buying.
My personal bias alert: I've simply heard
far too many "knowledgeable" people recommend this brand or that over these many, many years. Here's my personal take: when one is talking about any well-made instrument that has a known track record of quality over years, and enjoys return buyers, then really the main consideration is how said guitar sounds to
you ...others' opinions simply don't rate. The headstock logo makes a fine adornment; buy what truly speaks to you.
