The Finger Lakes area to be more exact. Taylor player since 1999 when I bought a 312ce. Been through many Taylors since and currently blessed with a 2014 714ce LTD Sassafras, a 2012 712e 12fret, a 2008 T5-S and a 2004 712E. I am a part time professional player and gig out 100+ times per year in solo, duo, trio and full band configurations. Other equipment includes an Ultrasound amp, Mackie unpowered mixer and QSC-12 powered speakers. I sometimes use a Roland GR-20 guitar synth with a Roland K-3 pickup and/or a Line 6 POD 2.0 with the T-5.
I should mention that I only play Taylor guitars at this point. For me, they offer the best package of sound, build quality, playability, electronics and consistency of any other guitars available. I strum, fingerpick and flatpick and they hold up to all. There are many other fine guitars made but none offer the whole package like Taylor.
I look forward to being a contributing member of the forum and learning from the vast knowledge contained herein.
