Default Why is Martin set up so poor?
Hi

I went to my local shop today to try out a few guitars.

Played a couple of Taylors(one was a 312ce) and they were very nice to play straight off the bat.

Played a couple of Martins including a D28 and though (for me) the sound of the Martins was warmer than the Taylors,the high set up on all the Martins was not great at all.

The sound of the D28 won the day for me and I really want one but the set up didn't make it as comfortable to play as I hoped,whats the score with Martin set ups?

Thanks

PS-on reflection 'Poor' should be subsituted with High
