Greetings from Sacramento CA
« on: October 29, 2014, 11:54:41 PM »
Howdy! I just joined this forum a few days ago, and today I purchased my first Taylor guitar. I just brought my 314ce home this evening, but I already love it! I am still at a beginner skill level, so looking to make new friends and improve my playing skills.

EDIT: I didn't realize my photos were SO large, so I resized them...sorry!

Welcome and congratulations on your first Taylor. Hopefully, more will follow (it's bound to happen) ::). Your new 314ce is very nice and you will find it to be a real workhorse. An all-around great guitar. Good choice. Hope you become an active member here....you'll enjoy it.

Terrific that your first guitar is an excellent one--your playing progress will certainly not be held back by your instrument!  My first guitar was best for julienning vegetables.......as much as $35 could buy!
