For a while I’ve been looking for a new acoustic to replace my old Takamine ESF-40C.  It’s a nice guitar that I got when I was about 18, but it’s worn out now and ready to retire.  Had a look at a few Taylors, including the 214, but ended up going with a brand called Faith.  The guitar I got is a Neptune High Gloss, it’s a baby jumbo shape without a pickup (I’ll put my own in).  It’s a bit cheaper in price than the Taylor 214 but has solid rosewood back and sides, I was quite surprised that the Taylor is mostly laminate and not entirely rosewood.

Anyway, I’m very happy with it and here are some pictures.  I’ll probably do a video soon, too.
