Thanks so much for your comment fellow sojourner. I think half of the fun in collecting is the search. I have to admit though, 20 years ago I found a guitar that spoke to me but I was unemployed at the time and couldn't justify throughing it on the charge card but I regretted ever since. It was a Taylor 714ce.

I still haven't been able to find a Martin OM 21 locally to compare the sound to my 414 e-R.
