New member and new to Taylor guitars
« on: August 10, 2018, 10:32:57 AM »
Hello all. Looking forward to being on this forum! Just bought my first Taylor guitar last sunday. I bought a Taylor 214ce Koa/Sitka. With this guitar, my guitar hoard is 7. I have a2012 Gibson Les Paul Standard Traditional Pro, a Gibson Les Paul 50s Tribute Goldtop, a 1998 Fender American Standard Hardtail Stratocaster, a Ibanez acoustic/electric, a Mitchell 12 string acoustic electric, a classical guitar, and a 1968 Gibson B-45-N-12 that my father left me. Ive been playing this new Taylor and love the sound, its very easy to play as well! Looking forward to seeing some interesting posts!

Welcome, great choice for your first Taylor! Notice that I said "first"?!  (Implies that there will be more.) ;)
