I ran into a Big Baby at the music store and played it for awhile. I found it as easy playing as all those other Taylor guitars and it also has a good sound. I think it would be a great first guitar especially for a smaller person. It has the feel of a "real" guitar whereas the Baby Taylor is so small that it does not have the heft of a regular guitar, giving it a toy-like feel.

Congratulations RM!
