Greetings, everyone; I am a new member
« on: May 23, 2012, 06:45:44 PM »
Hi, everyone.

I just wanted to introduce myself to this forum.  I've come here because I've decided to take the plunge and buy myself a new Taylor.  I spent several hours yesterday playing a few different models.  I fell in love with a gorgeous 716ce cedar which I have on 'layaway'.  The reason I did not buy it outright is because I had already purchased  a used 814 (spruce & Rosewood) just a few days earlier.   I look forward to mingling and learning other's opinions, stories, wishes and of course, creative goals and endeavors.  I presently own a few very nice guitars, and I probably should NEVER have walked into that store, but, alas, I did, and look what happened!  In any case, I'm glad to be here.  :)

Welcome WillaMuse.  I think you will really like the 716ce, they sound great, of course so does the 814.

Hi Willa, I went looking for a cedar topped guitar in the 500 series but ended up with the 516 LTD Koa from a few years ago.

At first I thought the GS shape was too big but I have grown to love it and the sound these guitars produce.

Hi,

At first handling, I also first thought the GS size was too big, but then I played it for an hour and I loved it.  It is a nice guitar.  I am a guitar NUT, and iin addition to the others I bought a floor model,  gorgeous 916ce with the Cindy inlays.  Needless to say, I am quite over-whelmed!  However, I absolutely love them all!

Photos, of all three coming soon.

:)

Welcome home, Willa! You've come to the right place to talk Taylor. I think you'll like the people here as much as you do your new guitars!
