I feel I have been a member of this forum before, but perhaps I never posted anything. Anyway, I have playing guitar for 58 years and play all styles. I have had several Taylors in the past...410s. My latest purchase, just today, is a 214CE. I also own an Academy series nylon string, and enjoy it very much. I purchased the 214CE to thumb pick on...that is one of my favorite styles and I use a Gretsch CG and a Heritage Super Eagle for thumb picking, but I enjoy the sound of a good acoustic to thumb pick on also. I have a Merle Travis album that he uses an acoustic on exclusively and I love it. While I will never sound like that, I hope to have fun with my Taylor sittin on the front porch pickin'. Another one of my favorite players is the late great Moon Mullins who used a Taylor guitar also.
Thanks and sorry for the long intro.

Hi Larry. Welcome back from a other old guy in Wisconsin.

Hey Larry,
Welcome from another old guy in Massachusetts. Been playing for about 55 years, some more than others. I find it very therapeutic, but more important, I just love playin'. Just picked up something new myself which is the new Epiphone Inspired-by-Gibson J-200. Which is their fancy way of saying they used solid woods on it. Slapped some Elixirs on it and it sounds just great. I guess you're never too old for a good case of G.A.S.
Be well,
Don, a big JJ Cale fan
