Ringo is still thought of highly by this fans over here.
I haven’t seen much of him on TV over the last few years though, but I might just be missing his appearances.
I think he just released an album in the USA.

congrats mike 8)

my first taylor was a 01 314ce & i put more playing time on that guitar than any of the others while i had it -
got my eye on a 316ce & i don't know how much longer it'll be until i have no choice but to let it follow me home :)

Congratulations, Mike! :) My 314ce has beautiful tone and classy looks! Actually I prefer the tone of the 3xx and 4xx series over most of the more expensive models--I just wish Taylor would offer them as all gloss. Enjoy your 314ce and may you have many years of bonding ahead! :D

Cool! There's a lot of love for the 3xx Taylors. Real work horses.

one year after the 314ce was introduced, there were the XXV-GA, & DR, sitka/quilted sapele models
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wD0-dc1GP8o

apparently, production spanned over 2 model years -
the end of 99

& beginning of 00

12 fall GAceLTD euro spruce/quilted sapele adi CV "ultra-extreme 314ce"

300, & 400, DLX models with gloss finish, ES2 & 09 400SLTD appointments would be pretty 8)

These are beautiful guitars--and one day I hope to be able to try a quilted sapele Taylor. :) I love the tone of the regular 3xx and 4xx series though without being a Limited model, but these links are quite NICE! ;D Thanks! ;)

The quilted sapele in the video is gorgeous, and its tone is wonderful! :o Wow!!!

Congratulations!  My nephew has one and adores it. Nice, solid guitar and a real workhorse. It will be even better as the years go by.

My wife plays the one I used to have. She likes it a lot. Nice guitar and a pick up to boot.
