For some reason, they seem to be pretty rare & seldom seen in stores. I just stumbled upon my S & P Showcase CH at the local GC, it was barely used.
20 minutes after trying it, I had to have it. Once it got a good set-up, it became a serious keeper for me. Another interesting thing is that quite a few of the S &P that I see up for sale on E-bay are being sold out of Japan.

I had a S&P and folk. I had played electrics for 12 years. The S&P was my first acoustic. It was wonderful, so wonderful that I had to buy additional acoustics. I sold it to buy my first Larrivee (I now have two). If it wasn't such a great guitar I may have stayed with electrics. Who knows? BTW Godin electrics and acoustics are great guitars.

I've played enough of both models and personally I would opt for the Yamaha L series (even the ll6 is good too if you have a tight budget). I don't know what kind of sound that you are after but the L series generally have a lusher tone whereas S&P guitars general sound more natural and woody.
For build quality, one reference point (my own reference point at least) is to feel the unfinished side of the top wood and see which one is smoother. Yamaha guitars are more consistent in their quality and they are generally less sensitive to humidity changes. If you bring your guitars out a lot, they are a good choice. I'm not saying S&P guitars are not good. Try them out and see which one you prefer! Happy guitar hunting!
