overkill
My opinion: if you don't plan on immediately resawing backs/sides/soundboards, a lot of the advice already posted, I think, is overkill. A ten-inch saw will happily do a whole bunch of good work for 2-3 hundred bucks and won't need to run on 220 and weigh on the wrong side of a quarter-ton. See the Laguna saw that Woodworker's Warehouse has on sale for January. Would I bring one into a production shop? no. But I'm a hobbyist, different rules and perspectives apply.
