For me, Nuno is my guitar hero, so I was deadset on buying his Washburn N4. When I got to the store, it felt all wrong in my hands, neck was too big for me and it just didn't feel right. Was so disappointed. Fortunately, I came across an Ibanez and I always loved their look, and this was quite a close match to the Washburn with the wood+color/HH pickup config but with a thinner neck, so I was happy it worked out in the end.
In my case, I went from playing electric to acoustic guitar when I quit playing in a band way back when. I bought a Martin which I loved, but the action (like all acoustics) didn't compare to an electric. Then I played a Taylor and fell in love. I bought a Taylor 812ce back in the 90s and I love it for the sound and the playability. For me, this is it. There may be better guitars out there, but I haven't picked one up yet that can match it for my taste.
