  Yep.  That's usually what's been the problem for me, too - the necks.

  Yeah, the Hummingbirds are nice.  I like the Gibson and Guild Jumbo
models, too - mainly for their warmth of tone in the bottom end.
I can't really afford them, though.  :-(

  I'll have to check out a couple of Taylors.  What I'm looking for
is an acoustic that I can play on stage with a band.  So, I'll need
to install a good pick-up in whatever I get.  If I still can't afford
a Gibson, Guild, or Taylor in another year or so, I may end up getting
a Takamine or something similar with a decent, built in pick-up.
