NGD- Taylor 510e
« on: July 15, 2018, 03:57:41 PM »
Purchased this yesterday at a guitar show. Wasn't even looking for a 5xx because I thought it was out of my price range, but luckily found this one. Now I can't seem to put it down....

That's super sweet. I usually play a Martin D-18 but I'd say I like the 510 I tried a few weeks a ago just as much.

Oooh yeah, an "instant classic" is absolutely the right descriptor!  That top is beautiful and the figuring of the back is simply gorgeous; the slothead then really sets this apart ...love it!  Huge congrats on a stunning addition :D

I was just looking through some of my old posts and found one where I'd been to Gruhn's in Nashville back in 2016 and loved a new 510 they had there. Hmmm. Maybe this is something I should look into further.... 8)

I have to say I have been very pleased with the combination of nice play-ability and very clear balanced tone and excellent volume.

Interestingly enough, on a recent Taylor podcast, a gentleman whose name I can't remember- a Taylor rep. and an excellent blues player, currently owns about 40 guitars. However, he said the next guitar he adds to his collection will be a 510e. I don't think you will reget it if you decide to do the same.

I'm sure a 510e would be perfect for me. The problem is that I wouldn't have anywhere to keep it, because if I bought another guitar my wife would kick me out on the street!
