Title: First post for first Taylor
Post by: Chances52 on September 18, 2016, 04:10:32 PM
Hello all newbie there
Just got my first Taylor 210 2005, very happy indeed.
Used to play my Takamine G260 for open mic and acoustic stuff but this Taylor just kills it.
I could do with some advice and feedback please.
Firstly i've noticed it's warm and balanced so i don't want to lose that through a pickup, any suggestions to keep it true or should i mic only. I have been using a Shadow SH145 prestige which did well but the difference in tone probably deserves something more honest.
Secondly can anyone tell me how thick the wood is at the end strap button in case i opt for K&K pure mini or my fixed jack plug on the Shadow.
Third and final for now is it me or is this model extremely light ? ,because it's solid wood ?
Any help would be great cheers.

I am partial to the ES system...not only for the sound, but also the minimalist design. I think the ES2 is just amazing.
