If you go to Exeter then go on to Hittisleigh and visit the Brook guitar's workshop.Facinating, friendly and very good guitars.Probably one of the best in the world and English, -too much is made of Martins and Taylors although I do have them in my collectin!-Try their website.
Do not be in a hurry to buy, wait until you meet the guitar thats for you.It is there, somewhere.
Happy hunting.
If you're in the Manch area better get one with a damp-proof guarantee! sorry.
