Hello first post
« on: May 14, 2020, 05:42:21 PM »
Greetings from West Palm Beach. I own 2 Martins, D45 and a HD28v and one 1965 Gibson J45. I am looking to purchase a new 914ce v bracing. I’m hoping this forum will help me with my decision. Thank you, Steve

Welcome Steve!

I'm a former HD28 and D45 owner as well. They're great guitars. A 914 would definitely provide a contrasting character for those two. I personally love the grand auditorium size/shape as you can see in my signature. Enjoy your stay and the journey!
My Taylor Grand Auditoriums:

1997 Cujo14 - old growth cedar/black walnut
2014 K24e - master grade koa
2018 Custom GA - bear claw sitka spruce/mahogany
2019 614 - torrified sitka spruce/flamed maple
2020 714 - lutz spruce/rosewood

Welcome Steve. I'm kinda partial to the 914's, they are wonderful guitars. There are many choices in the Taylor line. Maybe you can provide some more detail on what specifically you want in a Taylor.

Taylors: 914 ○ K24ce ○ 414 ○ GSMeK+
Pono Guileles: Mango Baritone Deluxe ○ Mahogany Baritone

Have been finger-pickin' guitar since 1973!

I’m looking for a balance of highs and lows. My Martin is a little boomy. I can control that with some EQ. I’m still out to lunch on purchasing one because of our current economy situation.
