Oh ok. Sorry it was quite muddy. Anyway let me rephrase... For a budget of 1500-2000, which OM brand will give you the best deal?
Martin and Taylor both make very nice smaller bodied guitars, but there's no doubt that you pay a substantial name premium in both cases.
I've never played a Larrivee, but heard good things; they are also not cheap and the name carries some weight, though it's less well known than Martin or Taylor.
I think Guild offers huge value; "twice the guitar for half the money" may be exaggerated but not by much. While they're mostly aimed at bigger instruments, you might want to look at the F47R. It's Grand Orchestra, not OM, but you're talking a size difference of .625 inches across the lower bout and virtually identical across the waist. Very nice guitars and in your price range.
If you're shopping in the US, definitely look at what's available second hand, some really exceptional deals come up.
