Hello to all! Just want to introduce myself. I am a state trooper by vocation, and a sometimes-frustrated musician by avocation!
My wife and I have traveled and sung gospel music for 26 years in the Midwest. We are published songwriters and have been blessed to have had several national groups/artists record our stuff.
I have played guitar since the age of six. (I'm 54) I am focusing more and more on fingerstyle, and was recently in one of the local music stores and saw a Taylor GC3 in the acoustic room, took it off the wall and began to play it. Having long thought that I would like to have a smaller bodied steel-string that I could use on stage (I have a Baby Taylor - fun for certain situations, but not a performance guitar IMHO), I quickly fell in love with the guitar. The owner of the store was present at the time and he uttered those magic words: "I'd make you a real deal on that one!" Long story short, I ended up putting a good down payment on it last week and I am going to go get her out of hock at the end of the month. I will post pictures when I bring her home! Any thoughts on that particular guitar are welcome. I look forward to getting aquainted with everyone!
