I'm looking at adding another acoustic to my collection. I'm looking at the following four as I can get any of them in about the same price range (+ or -). One of the choices is an acoustic/electric but this isn't really needed. Just thought it might be nice to have...it's also a cut-away. I've only played a couple in my list...the others I would have to order just to take a test drive.
Which of the following would you consider "best" for over-all acoustic recording work. Styles of play from easy listening/folk, light rock and a little classical. I really like the "Martin" sound with a little shimmer to it if you know what I mean.
Martin DCX-1E (this is the acoustic/electric)
Martin DX1 (I've played this...a rather sweet guitar for the price)
Martin DXK2 (unusual looking wood type "Koa"?)
Martin 000X1 (this one bothers me...some HPL construction but sounded nice)
Looking for anyone with first hand info on these and PLEASE...don't suggest that I shell out a "few extra bucks" for some of the more famous models. I'm simply not gonna do it.
Thanks,
