Good info... THe MMV uses the modified low oval. It would be intresting to try the low profile and low oval. I went on Martin's website to see the diffrence and I couldn't find much other than what was in the custom shop.
The Taylor uses a 15" fret radius and the Martins a 16". Don't know enough, but I wonder if that makes THAT much of a difference? Maybe for a super seasoned pro - which I'm not. Piano for 30 years, 1 year on the guitar...
