NGD! - K66ce
« on: April 18, 2015, 07:04:07 PM »
Thanks to all of the people here that convinced me that I would play my 12 string a fair amount of time.  I finally pulled the trigger on a K66ce and love it.  Sounds great and looks even better than the pics!  One happy camper!  Even have caught my son playing it quite a bit (he is an electric player). 





Thanks for all the help from this site.

Mazel tov!  That's the most gorgeous 12-string I've ever seen.  May you have many happy years with it.

Love the beauty of the K series. Yours is a great example of that. The pictures are stunning, but I also know how these look even more stunning in real life. I bet it sounds wonderful. Enjoy your new Taylor 12......I love mine more and more each day.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments. I have struggled over the twelve string question for two years, but after a couple of days with my new guitar, I know there will be no regrets. I wish I hadn't waited so long!

Congrats NorCal, what a stunner. I know you will enjoy that. I just got my first 12 string and see it opens up whole new areas of music to explore.

A Taylor Koa 12 string has always been near the top of my guitar wish list. Played one once at a roadshow and was blown away.  Congratulations on your acquisition.

Gorgeous! Welcome to the K club, everyone needs at least one. (You can quote me to your spouses). I can imagine this model is closest in sound to my 656ce in sweetness.

Yes that is very pretty and welcome to the K club, I'm not sure what I'd do with all those extra strings though :-)
