I have an unexpected day off tomorrow
. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to go acoustic guitar shopping and the stars have aligned for tomorrow.
I live in Derby - happy to travel a bit (an hour or so) - I was thinking Guitar Guitar Birmingham or Rich Tone in Sheffield. It’s been years since I’ve been to either.
I’ve visited Foulds Guitars and they have a nice Colin Keefe guitar, but nothing else around that price (£3500) to compare it to. I’d like to try and few, particularly Taylor, before I commit to anything.
Anyone have any suggestions of good shops to visit for acoustic guitars that are reasonably close?

Edit: I should say that I am biased as I have bought five guitars over the years from there.
OP surely Coda music acoustic store in Stevenage is worth a visit.

just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
If you *do* go there, check out that almost horizontal Taylor in the acoustic room. Man, that's a cool guitar

Top drawer and best service is Coda Music. Full stop - Doug and his team are brilliant, especially when it goes wrong or you change your mind.
Worth the journey in every way - it's still my no.1 dealer and I live in Wolverhampton.
Guitar guitar Birmingham and PMT would make sense.
Normally side-mounted controls just put me off, but there's something about that one. It's the looks, the sound, it just does it - for me.
which model is it ?
I had a 612 and a 614 back in the early 2000's - bought the 612 off ebay, sold it and bought the 614 from Soundcontrol for the princely sum of £1800 (and a Deville for £500)
couldnt believe when I saw they're north of £3k now for the new models

From my description they say a 614ce with honey-coloured top
I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.
