Thanks everyone.

The reason I started the thread is because they are both within the same price range. This fingerpicking/fingerstyle thing is new to me. The other day picked up a used 000m martin that actually made me sound like I knew what I was doing. I liked it, but I want to get an all-solid guitar.

I've been practicing fingerstyle on my Tak dred. While my left hand (chording hand) is doing ok as far as space is concerned, my picking hand is getting tripped up becuase the strings are close together. The 000 had wider string spacing at the bridge which made a lot of difference. I didn't feel like I was tripping all over myself.

I've always loved the Taylor sound and I occasionally find a Martin that I like too. It's just hard to decide, but I have plenty of time.

Thanks again!
