I hear what you are saying but some brands and woods have created trust. I did not see the Tak TSF48C i bought but i knew they were made with care in Japan and the materials, bracing and finishes were quality.
Being Rosewood and and NEX body type gave me what i expected so there is definitely some reason to have an expectation.
I have nothing against Taylor, but I want a solid wood Taylor and I'm not going to pay $1500 for a new 310 if i can have a Larrivee 03/09 at $1100. There are a few very nice pre owned taylors but all in the range of $1800-2000 and that is way above my budget.
I do agree with you that I'm going in blind with the Larrivee because i've only listened to the miced recordings of it so I'm taking a risk...
Is it worth the risk for the money...
