anyone own one of the Taylor 700 or 800 nylon series?

[darylcrisp]

these came out a year or so back, look to be in the x14 and x12 sizes and 12/14 fret models(i assume the x12 are all 12 frets).

would love to hear what you think of them after living with them for a while. overall tone, projection, style of music you play on them, do you feel its a worthwhile instrument for its intentions?

did you hear a difference between the 12 and 14 fret if you have opportunity to compare?

if you don't own one but played them, tell us your thoughts

thanks

Not directly related to your question but it is worth noting that Andy Lund mentioned at a Roadshow that if you are a serious classical guitar player, it is better to buy other reputable nylon-stringed brands, as the Taylor ones are specifically designed for live performance.
