Just watched a video of a Taylor 714 vs Martin D-28. The Martin was thin and tinny. The Taylor in this video sounds great but the Martin is full and rich. Nothing like the tinny sound in that other video. I've never heard a Martin sound so tinny. Especially a D-28. This video was more of what I had expected.
Some guitars are just better than others. I’ve played tons of 000-15M’s and there have been some that sound meh and others that are unbelievable. To my ears, the Martin is worth it’s weight in gold over the Taylor here, but a different D-28 might not keep up.
I saw that video too. The recording did not seem right. I tossed it out of my memory because it was kind of useless. This video does both guitars justice though. Now if only I could find a similar comparison of a 716/816/916ce to a D28 variant...
I own both. Personally I prefer the sound and playability of my Martin.....but that's just me. It has that warmer deeper tone and the neck feels comfortable to my hand when I play it.
I have 912 ce builder’s edition of Taylor and Martin HD28e. Both are the best guitar. But they have different characters. Martin is boomy and wild. Taylor is melody.
Have have a D28 authentic 1937 that sounds a whole lot better than the D28 in this video. However, I will play and probably buy a 914ce this week which is why I found this video. I know I’ll miss the Martin pop.
They both sound beautiful but honestly it’s not the fairest comparison because the Taylor is a cutaway and the Martin isn’t. The full bodied Martin is going to have a deeper sound just because it’s not a cutaway. They actually both sound similar. I have a feeling that if the Taylor didn’t have a cutaway it would sound exactly the same as the Martin.😊
I have both D-28 and the 914ce and I love both but the 914ce is the better hands down it even sounds better than the D45 ,In my opinion Taylor actually kills Martin guitars and I have both .
I have a 914ce-v and it has a very hi-fi clarity to it that I've not heard on other guitars. Both sound great in this demo. I think it's what your ears hear and fingers feel in person.
I don’t know what it is but that Martin almost brought tears of joy to my eyes. It’s almost like I can hear myself singing along with that guitar to where my vocals and that guitar would be in perfect musical harmony. The Taylor tries too hard, it sounds good but it’s detached from the human emotion side of things which essentially means that it misses the whole point of the music. The Martin D-28 is hands down better to me.
I’ve had both Martins and Taylors. They both have their strong points. The deal breaker for me has always been the neck. Taylor necks have a joint at the nut, and at the heel of the neck, like the inexpensive Asian guitars, to conserve wood. Martin always uses a one piece neck, which is much more costly, but will add to the tone, especially over time.
In the opening 12 seconds, the strum on the Taylor goes progressively towards the bridge thus thinning out the sound. On the Martin the strum is more uniformly positioned thus leaving the sound more open. This is a bad inconsistency since we're looking at just 6 seconds on each guitar. Why play it so differently when we're looking for a comparison? It makes no sense to do this !!!
@@el34glo59 Look again, the very first strum on the Taylor is right over the sound hole, but the next 3 are at the bridge. You can hear the difference so plainly let alone see the guy move his had so obviously towards the bridge.
Mmmm..!! Las dos son buenas guitarras, depende lo que busques es la que tienes que comprar, porque los sonidos son diferentes, pero por un precio mas bajo la ll16 de Yamaha se las lleva en sonido
@@NeyorahGamingonly right answer here. Taylor is much softer in character, Martin more bold. Horses for courses. Do you want velvet stage pants or leather ones. Ok bad analogy, but people have made platinum records with $300 takamines and epiphones because the tool fit the vibe.
Outro detalhe a ser considerado é o preço. O Taylor do vídeo é um 914ce Standard e custa em torno de 4.800 e 5.100 dólares. O modelo *Builder's Edition* que usa madeiras de qualidade ainda maior e passa por testes mais rigorosos antes de sair da fábrica, pode custar entre 6 e 7 mil dólares. Um Martin D-28 custa 3.200 dólares! Mais baratos que o 914ce podemos colocar na comparação os FG9 da Yamaha, que atropelam o modelo da Taylor em Graves, Médios, Agudos e Claridade nos tons. Sem contar que a qualidade de construção japonesa é a melhor do mundo, com esses violões da Yamaha sendo feitos na lendária fábrica Fujigen. *(um funcionário da Fender disse que se sentiu um idiota quando visitou essa fábrica. Outro, da Gibson Custom Shop, afirmou que os funcionários da Fujigen fazem os americanos parecerem um bando de crianças brincando com giz de cera).* Pelo mesmo preço do 914ce, dá pra conseguir um Yamaha LL56 Custom A.R.E., que segundo relatos e comparações em diversos fóruns gringos, bate de frente com o Martin D-45... um violão que custa *MAIS DE 10.000 DÓLARES!*
I don't see anything wrong with this comparison, Martin invented the dreadnought shape and Taylor the grand auditorium cutaway, so basically he is comparing each manufacture invention. And beside, the title says Taylor 914ce VS Martin D-28, it doesnt say anything about body shapes. And comparing Mcrgregor to Alistair Overeem it's weird yes, until there is an actual fight then its not weird anymore lol
Obviously the d-28 sounds better by far. Although I found a little 200 series Taylor that has a good bottom end, very few of them have got the across the board blend that the Martin has.
Taylor all day Martain will never have the beautiful overtones of that Taylor if you play bluegrass thump you might want the Martin for all other gender's of music Taylor has got it hands down. In my Opinion !!!

Never have enjoyed the sound of a Taylor. When approaching a busker from behind, I’m always confident calling out “Taylor, huh?” before I see the instrument. Not in a good way, at all.

I like martin D28...👍
Martin has the old school dreadnaught sound and Taylor has the clean modern sound.
I love 914’s low strings sound
interesting because Martin is famous for their low string sound!
Not only smooth and tight, but also a bright sound, the 914’s low string sound.
It’s very cool sound
Taylor 914ce good sound !

That was probably the video. Martins are anything but thin and tinny. Never, ever judge a guitar by a video
I own both. Personally I prefer the sound and playability of my Martin.....but that's just me. It has that warmer deeper tone and the neck feels comfortable to my hand when I play it.
Martin ❤
I liked the Taylor much but the martin moved me
Would love to hear the 914 back to back against a d-35!
I have 912 ce builder’s edition of Taylor and Martin HD28e. Both are the best guitar. But they have different characters. Martin is boomy and wild. Taylor is melody.
D 28 is "the guitar"...this is the sound of country
Con solo escuchar el primer acorde con la martin D28 se noto una notable diferencia, en esta oportunidad Martin&co esta por sobre Taylor.
At similar prices... I pick the martin...is more my sound
No low end on the Taylor
compared to Martin, noope ;) :))
Bonjour, pourriez vous faire une comparaison avec une 00028 de chez Martin et une 00015 . Merci d'avance

One's dreadnought other's ga. Both sound wonderful

🤣🤣🤣🤣Martin is king….
..... Bro stop. Taylors do not kill Martins. They're overbuilt. Tjr finish is super thick. There's a reason Taylors tone doesn't change much with age
Maybe your Martin has a problem, strings, dried out....
They are two totally different guitars. No similarities other than the model you like.
MARTIN, period.
The D-28 clearly.
We have a Japanese proverb that translates something like:
Break wind in the face of
He who says he cannot smell
That says it all.
Quite the edifying proverb!
Yes sir, pure truth!
😂
Martin has that sound. The HD-28 is the only guitar anyone will ever need! Taylor's are high pitched due to light strings.
Grand Auditorium vs Dread?
I can get a one year old barely used 914ce for cheap. Should I buy it?
Martin by a mile
by 100.000 miles actually !!!!
I can’t help but feel like the mic is picking up the low range of the Martin so much better?
I don’t know what it is but that Martin almost brought tears of joy to my eyes. It’s almost like I can hear myself singing along with that guitar to where my vocals and that guitar would be in perfect musical harmony.

안녕하세요~영상에 나오는martin D-28은 모델 정확한 명칭이 어떻게 되나요?
28のペグはゴールドに変更しましたか？
I have both ,just by a small margin prefer Martin guitars
these have very different price tags, don’t they?
taylor for guitarist" martin for singer and playing guitar at same time.

Taylor necks have a joint at the nut, and at the heel of the neck, like the inexpensive Asian guitars, to conserve wood. Martin always uses a one piece neck, which is much more costly, but will add to the tone, especially over time.
What if someone wants it both ways : the deepness/warm martin D sound AND the clear sound on one single guitar ?
In the opening 12 seconds, the strum on the Taylor goes progressively towards the bridge thus thinning out the sound. On the Martin the strum is more uniformly positioned thus leaving the sound more open. This is a bad inconsistency since we're looking at just 6 seconds on each guitar.

Good observation! It’s always good to never trust these reviews and try them in the store .
어찌 이리 다른기탄데~ 둘다 좋을까요~ 오늘은 테일러가 더 좋게 들리네요~
I’m a Taylor fan but I liked the Martin an awful lot! 🧐🧐🧐
Prefer Taylor. But you need to test similar body shapes. That affects the difference in sound, beyond the differences in manufacturing.
914 has tighter sound with more punchy bass and well as high frequency treble. D-28 sounds warmer and smoother.
OMG how the Martin sings
❤ correct
Taylor the best!
I found the Martin very fade in comparison to the Taylor.
914 sound is tighter, more punchy and more clarity. D-28 is warmer and darker.
914 rings so much better with projection, the Martin has a more mellow tone, 914 is my choice.
Taylor❤
Get a Martin GP custom and you'll have the most versatile guitar you'll ever need
Martin sound❤
Woow.....very moore D28....😲...
What strings are on the Taylor 80/20 or PB?
PB Strings usings :)
Martin ❤
둘다 좋은데 914가 사운드나 디자인이 더 좋네요~~!!!

Both are nice guitars, but the Taylor looks nicer, seems more focused and less muddy sounding. Are they the same price?

New Taylor's just don't do it for me. They don't have much bottom end. For a dreadnaught to be clearer then a GA is pretty sad...
I like how the low end is more prominent in the Taylor sound. I just don't have enough money for either guitar though. 😆
Mee too and there are guys that make collection of these like they are nothin. Life never was fair so we have to live with it
You are comparing a grand auditorium cutaway with a full dreadnought shape. It's like comparing Mcrgregor to Alistair Overeem...
That’s a very appropriate analogy.

Cant compare sounds. One is Dreadnought and the other is GA type of guitar. They have different sound profile.
oh boy what wouldnt I do for a new Taylor 914ce
Martin all the way for me. So great guitar. Taylor's sound never appealed to me for some reason.
