Hello all. 
I'm thinking of a new Acoustic and whilst I'm usually happy to go second hand I'm after a bit of advice on 2 new contenders that seem interesting to me. I know I should go and try them and find out for myself and to be honest I normally hate threads like this.....But is there something I'm missing about these 2? Before I go and back to back them?
.
Finlayson J50 ME
Yamaha LJ16

Would really appreciate any pointers. Thanks very much.

    The yamahas are excellent and very cheap at peach guitars at the moment

    I was lucky enough to grab a lj36 from there and its amazing

    The LJ size is also very comfortable to me but size is very subjective

    Haven’t had any dealings with Finlayson but they look interesting. GG have some massive discounts on them. 
    All solid with help from Godin? Bet they sound great but what kinda tone they have is the key I guess. At £599 it take a punt on one of those

    Thanks Gents,
    This is why I asked:)
    The Yamaha looks a really great deal and solid rosewood to boot.
    Whilst I'm not really  brand orientated......I also really like the spec of  the  Finlayson.....Made by Godin in Canada which I'm ashamed to say kind of swings it over China...
    Anyone played the Finlayson?  The only internet review is on GG site who are sole dealers and a big journey for my nearest.

    I have two friends that swear by their Recording Kings RO-T16. And both have access to very expensive gear since they're producers/performers, one in Nashville and the other in New York.
