I went through this search and settled on a 12 fret, short scale with extended upper bout and bridge placement lower - what I call a pot-bellied 000. Love the one I ended up with.
These are generalizations, but I did so because these guitars tend to have more character, a richer tone, and, if you're a couch player, the reach along the fretboard is easier. If you don't have one of these, strongly consider one.
Others will disagree, but I consider a 14 fret 000 to be basically an OM, and OM's, to me, are just less interesting -- though generally more versatile.
You need to decide if you need the extra 2 frets -- it does make a difference, depending on what you play.
Have fun with your search.
