pretty top
just an observation -
the new owner will be able to register the guitar with Taylor &
will receive wood & steel & postcard notifications of upcoming
events, but the limited lifetime warranty will not be valid

That's a beautiful guitar . I love the Koa edge treatments and armrest. I'd probably have to let my 816ce go to get it but man its tempting. I know some people don't like pick gourds and yours looks good great without one, but I'm afraid I'd scratch the heck out of that beautiful top with my strumming. One of the nicest guitars I've seen in a while,. Good luck !!!

Thanks! And not a big deal to add a pickguard, a number of suppliers will make or sell you a nice Taylor shaped one of rosewood or anything one likes!

Thanks , but actually I was thinking a  figured KOA pick guard would fit right in , but I'm just dreaming ... My wife would first; think I'd gone off the deep end and then second; ... uh... she'd kill me.

It is better to ask forgiveness than permission.

I have found that Adirondack tops can make for a powerhouse in volume.  Add in the AA Rosewood and wow what a nice guitar you have there.
