Gotta come clean. We (well, actually my wife) spent $XXXX at a roadshow for a Custom GC 12-fret Sinker/EIR (photo attached). This beautiful guitar also sounds amazing, even with a light touch. But the grass is always greener, and second-guessing is rampant in my head. This guitar compares favorably with a Bourgeois signature OM Adirondack top, Madagasgar Rosewood B & S priced exactly the same as my Taylor. I didn't have the opportunity to hear them side by side so I'm not sure how they compare, but I lusted (with no cash to spend) after the Bourgeois for months, about a half year before my wife bought me the Taylor!! And I just attended the Woodstock Show, with many amazing guitars in the $4000-$8000 price range. Should I (she) have waited? Believe me, I expect no pity, just some chortling from some out there...............
