Blinging up the girls.
« on: October 20, 2015, 07:49:04 AM »
I'm not a bit fan of bling unless it's done tastefully of course  ;D
Here's my K24ce with Bob Colosi dyed bone bridge pins and my 714ce with Bob Colosi dyed bone bridge pins and Bill Nichols rosewood tuner buttons.

Great enhancements - I'm a big fan of Colosi dyed bone buttons and use them on almost all my guitars.

Gotoh 510 tuners look and feel wonderful. Make the stock tuners look chunky. About a century note upgrade cost in most cases.

Gotoh 510 replacement tuners on my 812 made the instrument irrepleacible for me. Hard to describe the smoothness and accuracy of the Gotohs compared to the standard Taylor tuning machines. Such an upgrade. Though they are beautiful they are no bling - just the real thing!

My K24ce has antique gold Gotoh 510's on it and they look great, I'd not considered upgrading them on the other two though.
