Personally I prefer Gibson Hummingbird.
For Taylors, it's really out of your budget.
Anyway, go try Yamaha's first.

QUOTE(quarantined @ Jul 17 2007, 05:31 PM) Have you played a Hummingbird before? I've never seen anyone here who owns it. Not even second hands.. I was looking for a good second hand. Wonder why it's hard to find one here. Damn even the Epiphone Dove costs a bomb. Yes, I played before. I own one.Other than that..no idea about that. |

Taylors are stunning too when I first try them, got myself a 310CE (yes! same with the one barney tried) and that was my first one. After a time, Gibson Hummingbird sounds just okay but it's like suits my mood and feelings on the music I played, then I picked up the Gibson.
Awww...both is nice afterall. Still, I prefer the Hummingbird. "Everyone has it's own opinion" |

QUOTE(ReeveX.com @ Jul 22 2007, 12:41 PM) When I'm in Malaysia, it's really crazy to see how things expensive is. Understanding the Malaysian culture here for few years already and I really pity you guys.In London, Fender, Gibson, Taylor or the other major brand, the pricing is slightly like half of the price. To fix confusion, the pricing is the same but currency, salary and tax price are totally different. |

QUOTE(Everdying @ Jul 22 2007, 11:07 PM) there is no tax on malaysian instruments, only a 10% import duty. Okay, I didn't know that but seems like my friends in town can simply get their instrument easily.while if im not mistaken, in the UK its a 17% tax on instruments. its expensive here cos the shops mark it up real high. |
