Grand Symphony Bliss!
« on: April 04, 2013, 10:31:58 PM »
Well I just have to say it.  This is The Best Guitar I have ever played and I have played quite a few over the years.  When I bought this one I thought, yea...the novelty will wear off, the strings will deaden a bit and the honeymoon will be over...No way Jose!
This puppy just keeps on giving...tons of headroom and I would swear there are harmonies being sung when I am strumming hard and singing.  Also the lightest fingerpicking is just plain delicous.  What a Guitar!!  :) :) :)

It really is a great feeling when you have something special that, over time, reasserts is worth!  The honeymoon fades, but true love endures!
...wait, we are talking about guitars, right?  ;)
Congrats!

ditto that!!... That was my exact thoughts after purchasing a Custom GS (cedar/rosewood)!  I was shocked by the tone... after playing and owning other (production line) Taylors. The closest I can remember it sounding like was a 714 I played in the late 90's).  Anyway..welcome to the forum, and enjoy that guitar.. I am sure others who hear it will share your joy!

Thanks guys...I really do feel very fortunate...this guitar is exactly the sound I was looking and listening for all these years!  Actually I didn't think it could sound this good...my hat is off to Bob Taylor!!!

I agree. For me, the GS is the perfect size. Larger than a GA, but smaller than a Dread.  With a sound that mimic both....well at least to my ears.

Congratulations on a beautiful GS.

I LOVE the GS body, I also love those Gotoh 510s, my favorite tuners.
