There's plenty of small luthiers as well.
If you are gassing again your a sick man!
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
I'd take a Taylor any day of the week though, but I like bright acoustic sounds.

I've always liked the look of Lowdens but I can't play acoustic to save my life so I'm extremely unlikely to ever buy one.
I did have a bottom-of-the-range Lakewood for a while, that's the only decent acoustic I've ever owned.

Aye, there is something about Gibson acoustics. That really thumpy bass on a J45 is so different to the Martin sound, although love that too. Great acoustics to sing with, just blend perfectly with your voice. And they are really versatile, usually good strummers, pickers whatever. Not too lush sounding, just nice and percussive and don't overpower everything else.
This is a J45 Legend. Apparently an exact copy of a 1942 Guitar, down to the last detail, roughly cut braces, bits of glue squeezed out etc. etc.. Really does feel and sound like a very old guitar. Monster neck, about a Nocaster and a half again.

So this was not a waste of time at all.
Martins were once the 'gold standard' of acoustics - although even back then, Gibsons were an alternative - but nowadays there are so many more great guitars than that, and above a certain quality it just comes down to personal taste.
