By the way, I'm suprised that both of your guitars are light as a feather -- mine is heavy, possibly because of the wide chunky neck. |

My Yamaha and my Alvarez are very heavy. The S&P is incredibly light - like I said, feels almost like a toy. The Gull is a bit "heavier", but the word "heavy" doesn't translate to the Gull, and it's a dread.
The Alvarez is a tank. Ditto the little Yammie. Even though they are not Martin's/Taylor's/et al, they are four interesting, very different guitars. But the S&P would be the keeper, of the group.

Had a LaPatrie that I enjoyed: got it used and a little banged up. It was good for a non-classical player like me for the nylon feel.
I had an S6 for a while. It was a great guitar. I eventually sold it. I would describe it as very dependable and decent sounding. I played in altered tunings and standard. |

Unfortunately mine wasn’t so great. Back around 1990 I bought my first acoustic steel string guitar, a Norman dreadnought that was beautifully made and finished, but it was all laminate cherry (didn’t realize this), it never warmed up in sound, and resulted in loss of interest in guitar playing for the next 25 years. If I had only stayed with Yamaha (had learned on a student classical) things could have been very different.

I have a Seagull S6 made in the late 90's. I bought it used 15 years or so ago. Good quality guitar with a good sound. It isn't as nice as my J-15 or D-28, but it's very good for the price. It's my beater guitar so to say, though I certainly don't abuse it. Only Godin product I've owned.
