A dreadnaught (310) has a more cavernous body than a Grand Auditorium (314), so it will likely be louder and a bit boomier, but not necessarily brighter. The playability is not identical because the dread uses medium-gauge strings while the GA uses light gauge. Medium-gauge strings are somewhat harder to play. As for the 312, a Grand Concert body is the smallest acoustic/electric body that Taylor makes. That size body is typically the quietest of all of them.

Even if you have to drive a bit to get to them, I'd do it. Try them out. Buy the one that speaks to you.
