Guitar playing audiophiles, Martin or Taylor?


My "other half" is exploring the stress releiving effects of playing acoustic guitar. She's a great woman! She actually convinced me to buy a pair of Rowland model 9 monos w bps, instead of a boat. Thats my girl! Anyway, shes been playing for 1.5 yrs. Its a toss up between Martin ???? Koa wood, Taylor 314ce, Takamini GS330s, and a Tocoma???sound hole on top!!! All these models can be had "used" for around 900.00 All replys welcome, thanks Scot

I have 4 bass guitars, an old 80s vintage Fender 4 string, a Yamaha 5 string, and 2 Ibanez, the cheaper of the two is my favorite to play. Its not finished nearly as well as the more expensive Ibanez but oddly seems to play better. You would think the more costly better finished instrument would play better but it just doesnt.
