Any love for the Taylor GC3?

Love mine, use it for all kinds of fingerstyle and recording. Concert sized instrument, all solid wood, no cutaway or electronics, 14 frets, 1 3/4" nut with short scale. Works really well with alternate tunings, DADGAD, etc. Even tuning down the low E string to C (as in orkney tuning) is no problem. This guitar sounds great and is relatively inexpensive.

Perfect for me!

Greg,

I don't own one, but I have three different friends who do, so I get a chance to play them fairly regularly.  It's a very sweet little guitar that sounds great and plays like a guitar costing 500 percent more.  I recommended to one of my friends that she swap out the strings for DR Rares, and now she loves the guitar even more thanks to the enhanced bass presence.

I'm thinking about one - partly because of the smaller body size, but clips I've heard sound great.

I love mine too, for all the reasons you mention and more.  I am amazed by the strong midrange voice this guitar has.  And plucking the low E, alone, sounds like someone hitting an E on a piano-beautiful.       
My only complaint is the somewhat low treble response, strange considering the small body.  I use Med-Light elixirs and am not sure if that's why.  But man, does a GC3 have an bold sonic footprint!

Another fan here. I find it very comfortable to play with very high quality construction and finish. I play a lot of jazz on mine, a mix of chord and melody lines and it sounds great for this, with the shorter scale allowing that bit of give in the strings in terms of bending etc. There's times too when you get this lovely woody tone of the solid sapele coming through. I play with a thicker pick and I like the strings when they've settled in a while, it has a nice mature tone to it.
