[Removed comment. Information would have only been potentially useful to OP and I missed that this was resurrected from the archives from 10 years ago]

Martin HD-28 is always a good sound and I have an old Epiphone that comes very close to the HD-28. However a Martin D-35 with the right strings (I'm liking the DR Sunbeams for that) will sound big and rich like a 814, but with a Martin vibe.

OK, I'll play along in that constructive spirit:
Best power: I played a Taylor 718 (or was it an 818?) at a roadshow. Simply the most powerful Taylor I've ever played (and I've played a lot). Best fingerstyle: My favorite is exactly my GC7. Small body, short scale, 14 fret, cedar-over-EIR. Simply their "best" guitar for fingerstyle. Best bang-for-buck: Taylor GA3 is the most Taylor you can get in the lowest price for their solid woods. Best Taylor-esque: Theuir 814 which is the flagship of everything Taylor. Best small guitar: GS Mini Mahogany.

I don't know if I have the best or even what that is,
but I have all the guitars I want or need. I am content! Here is my 2016 510e with Lutz, mahogany, and Taylor's vintage neck shape (it feels great): |

I find it funny the the original poster has been gone since 2007!
Don't think he cares.

Curiously, I have my 414CE for almost three years and it's the Taylor that, to my ears, has a tone closer to a GOOD Gibson acoustic

Despite the OPs absence I'll chime in - of course the best Taylor is the last one I bought..... the 2016 514ce-LTD, red cedar and granadillo.

You'll never find your best Taylor if you're going to listen to all the people who describe their best Taylor. Go play as many as you can and find the one you want using your own criteria of what 'best' would mean for you.
