Granted, you have to have the money to spend, but isn't a Rainsong, CA, or Emerald the ultimate "beater."
I am selling 2 of my Taylors in order to fund a Rainsong. I haven't played one yet for any real length of time, but did like the one I played a couple of years ago.
Please no flames about a $2000 beater. I am fortunate enough to be able to afford it, if I sell the other 2 guitars.
I don't know about anyone else, but when I go to friends' houses for parties, etc., I sometimes get, "Oh, did you bring your guitar?" I love to play whenever I can, but don't want to be so pretentious as to bring a guitar and then bring it in the house, "just in case." But I won't leave my Taylor out in the car for 4 hours while I attend a party. A composite guitar could handle that, right?
Just my opinion. I don't think I would ever have a composite as my only guitar. But what a nice thing to have for what I have been talking about.
