Breedlove is good.  Check out Blue Ridge as well.  They have models made specifically for bluegrass fingerpicking.  If you're not familiar with bluegrass finger picking, it's very, very fast.  Also, they sound terrific and probably will not eat up your entire payout, leaving you with some change to get you a guitar and maybe a digital recorder.

Re: probably my last guitar

I agree with NUI, Breedlove is awsome. I am also a big Taylor fan, but when I played my first Breedlove there was no question. I bought a "black magic" and since then I have been on there web site every day. Some day (if I ever have the $$$$$) I hope to go to the Breedlove shop and buy a custom guitar, until then I'll keep enjoying mine. Again as always I'm sure you know by now that it's all personal prefrence.
