NGD: 2016 Taylor 712ce
« on: December 06, 2020, 02:38:03 PM »
I just picked up this 2016 Taylor 712ce.
In my opinion -- looks great, feels great and sounds great.
It looks brand new.
Here's some pics --

That looks to be in beautiful shape. I love the appointments on the 700 series guitars....so classy. I think that's the coolest looking neck back that I've seen on a Taylor. Enjoy!

Many congrats!  For sure elegance, the 700 series might be my favorites- everything from the inlays to the koa binding- yours is beautiful

Outstanding ...glad you went with the 712!  Beautiful example you have there with a nice, even grain on the top and lovely figuring on the back.  Enjoy in the best of health, man!  :)

Howdy,

Just wanted to comment on this guitar. Your guitar is a beauty, I have the same model with the slotted headstock. Mine is a 2017. I just got it 2 weeks ago and couldn't be more pleased.
