New member from Mississauga
« on: March 24, 2013, 07:58:02 PM »
Hi folks
I just wangled a deal with The Guitar Shop in Mississauga and landed the last one of their TGS (The Guitar Shop) Custom Shop guitars made in 2010.   I have played this guitar for the past 2 years every time I visited the shop and it was my favorite of the 20 that were made. 

This is my first Taylor.  Beautiful Rosewood with Sitka top in a Grand Symphony shape with gotoh tuners and bone nut and saddle. 

Taylor just did a roadshow there at the shop a few weeks ago and I was able to play quite a few models and although they were excellent, I kept coming back to this guitar.

I could not be happier.  Played it today at church and it was awesome!

DEFINITELY THE BEST GUITAR I HAVE EVER OWNED OR PLAYED!   :) :) :)

Hi Martin... I had to sell off my main 2 guitars (a Guild jumbo 12 string and a Larrivee L-02) to be able to afford this one.  As much as I love the Guild 12 string guitar, and the Larrivee, this 6 string Taylor won out for ease of playability and tone.  I suppose it took me a couple of years to realise that the trade off would be worth it.  I have no regrets...this taylor is fantastic!
