I have a Tanglewood I'm happy with and know a number of other friends who have them who like them. Reasonaly priced and widely available.

The thing that particularly drew me to it was its neck (I played a LOT of guitars when I was looking for a new one). Most guitars don't seem to differ dramatically on the width of the neck but they don't seem to on the thickness. I have an old Yamaha FG180 which I used to think had quite a thin neck but it feels like a block of wood comparatively. The nearest way I could describe its feel is like an electric guitars neck. It has a nice easy action and the sound is fine for me.

I'd be a little wary of ebay on an acoustic unless you can try it before you buy - to me the way a guitar feels in your hand is so important and they vary so much.

Am I right in thinking you know Richard Bridge? He is always very helpful on stuff like this.
