Some have posted how they love satin,  others how they love gloss. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, that's for sure. Just goes to show, you have to do what sounds and looks best to you. The bright side, it will be a Taylor, so the guitar will be great.  ;)

I took Sweet Wife to the local guitar hut with me last night - with the exception of husbands she usually appreciates the prettier things in life.  I showed her the GA4 - she gave it a 'meh' ... I played it for a minute or two and her attitude changed a bit.  They didn't have a GA8 on the floor but they did have an 810 that I picked up.  She oohed and ogled at its beauty but when I played it she said she liked the sound of the GA4 better.  I know the dread sounds different than the GA, but her reaction was interesting.

I still don't know.   But the quest is fun.
