I have owned and played a Taylor K14 c since 1998. It has a cedar top. Before that I owned a Santa Cruz model H with spruce and koa. I liked both of their sounds. The sound engineer on a couple of our recordings really liked recording it (the Taylor). There's songfiles on our myspace section and I can give you a youtube channel if you want to see/hear how it sounds (even through computer speakers). Send me a PM if you want the details.
