Hello from the Isle of Arran
« on: January 19, 2020, 07:31:25 AM »
Thanks for having me here.

Last week I bought my first Taylor, a K62ce, from Guitar Guitar, Glasgow. The serial number is 1103026125.
My music partner Heather helped me to choose between that and a new 352ce. Same body shape, very different sounds! The 352 was far louder acoustically, but plugged in, the Koa box had a depth and richness that made the sale.
Looking forward to learning more and exchanging views concerning this model.

Welcome Aboard!

I spent a couple years in Holy Loch not too far from you, your country is beautiful!  Enjoy your new guitar...

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome.
I've taken pics but they do no justice to this beautiful instrument. I'll post some when the sun shines on it.
