NGD & Thanks again to Jim aka GuitarRodeo
« on: June 26, 2013, 08:42:40 PM »
It's been a few years but I couldn't resist the 12-string tone I had so long missed since parting with my 2003 654ce SS all those years ago (also from Jim). Thankful amongst my illness I've been fortunate enough to scrape up funds for a BTO GS which I'm thrilled with.

A big thank you to Jim once again for his flexibility and willingness to deal with me as it means the world (I know I can be meticulous and a perfectionist) - an Aussie 1000's of miles away. ;)

I hope someday our paths cross and I'll be able to thank Jim in person for his years of service!

Until then, I leave y'all with a few snapshots taken by Jim (nice pics too).




Cheers all,
Reagan

Wow....spectacular. IMHO, nobody does 12 strings like Taylor. The playability, sound, intonation is top notch. That is a beauty!  Congrats and enjoy!

Wow what I beauty.  Congrats on your new guitar, and I hope that you have many years of enjoyment with it.
I also can't say enough about Jim.  I have purchased 3 guitars from him in the last 3 years and each time it has been a pleasure to work with him.

Man oh man! That is one beautiful guitar.

Having owned three Taylor 12s (855, 855 and Custom Jumbo CE), and still owning two (one of the 855s went to a new home a couple of years ago), we can testify to the build quality and playability of them...

Yours is a stunner! Congrats!

 Man, that's one beautiful guitar.  :) I love the arm rest and the back of the headstock finish. Wow.

 Well done, Reagan.
