    Over the course of the last 3 months I've bought six acoustic guitars, knowing only one could stick around. Three different variations of J45, because it's been my dream acoustic for a long time, and three different Taylors, because they just intrigued me. Five have been returned. I'm an electric player and I've never bought a "real" acoustic in the 25 years I've been playing (ive had a Baby Taylor since 2002). It came down to a 2022 J45 Standard and this 517. To be honest the 517 BLEW all of the other guitars out of the water in every single category except maybe unplugged acoustics when compared with that J45 Standard. I think the J45 sounded just ever so slightly better.... Until you plug them both in. People can say what they want about that ES2, but there is zero quack in the 517 pickup. It's the most natural sounding pickup without a mic that I've ever heard. Also, I really don't find it to be harsh at all like they're normally made out to be. The Baggs in that J45 sounded like a toy guitar honestly. Pure garbage. But I found myself being a brand snob, which isn't normal for me. I allowed people to get in my head about Taylor and how they suck, and sound harsh, blah blah blah. That, coupled with me just simply wanting a J45, because "I've always wanted one," is the reason it took more that 30 seconds even to decide the Taylor was for me. Fit and finish is on a higher tier, more features, MUCH easier to work on, feels absolutely amazing (most important to me), sounds fantastic to me.

Such great advice on connecting with your guitar. Thank you very much!
