The WS1000 is a great guitar. It's definitly got more volumn than your Taylor. No comparison in that department. Rainsongs (all sizes) have a great deal of volumn. The difference is that it's not a "wood" sound/tone/sustain, etc. Yet, it's still a guitar and they can be heard very clearly for a considerable distance. These guitars likely have more sound than all the Taylors, Martins, Gibsons, etc. that you have ever played. But, it's not the sound projected by wood. If one likes the sound of the Rainsong, then like anyother guitar one likes, that is the guitar for you. They are as good as most any guitar you will find. For me, I was simply drawn back to the tone and sound of wood and I played my WS1000 less and less, eventually selling it........One thing I found out is that if you play your Rainsong at about three in the morning on a clear and still night, neighbors a dozen houses away will hear it and be able to identify what song you are fingerpicking.
