Dream GT

Folks, if you are waiting for the Taylor American Dream to be here then be informed that the plug-in version is now available at Swee Lee ($2,449). The American Dream was first mentioned here: CLICK

Also available but already out of stock is the GT model ($2,299). The GT was first mentioned here: CLICK

Just to recall what's the big deal with these two; the American Dream is touted to be the most sensible (price-wise) when it comes to an American Taylor guitar while the GT is the bigger brother (slightly only, still not a full-sized instrument) of the GS Mini featuring an all solid construction. 

My concern with the American Dream was its price. Now that we have full knowledge of its listing, this guitar is facing stiff competition against Gibson's G-45 Standard which features an all solid body construction as well but for about $700 less. The GT - well, is way beyond the GS Mini price tag by more than $1K. Yes, the GT is a different kind of beast, it's slightly bigger & that all solid body enticement contribute to costs. Based on this factor alone, there won't be a massive switch between the GSM & GT campers. Then again, this comparison is not quite objective considering they are different guitars that dangerously tread on being similar upon some considerations.
