Pictures of your BTO's, LTD's, MOM's and Customs..lets see em!
« on: December 13, 2011, 09:20:48 AM »
Well, we all love to see and share pictures of our wonderful Taylors.  Therefore, I thought we should have a thread to show off our “non-traditional” Taylor models!

I will start with my 2009 ‘MOM’ 614ce with an Engelmann top and Honey burst.  (I got these pics from Woody on the AGF when I bought it...still need to take my own)

Fellow members, this is not fare.  You all are causing some mild symptoms of GAS.  Lock this thread, or else I feel someone may find a need for a Christmas gift similar to these fine instruments.

Someday, I hope to understand why such beautiful Taylors
evoke such a visceral, spiritual response in me.  I suppose
it's all part of the "Zen of Guitar."

G day Micheal, not real sure about the pic size, must be the way my work pc is set up. The  one's missing are the R Taylor and the 12 string all mahogany GS from that shot.

That R Taylor is my only maple guitar and it was an E bay find at a very low price. It's actually the cheapest guitar i own, as far as what i paid for it.
It's also my main gigging guitar. It had a small scratch near the cutaway which looked like a crack, but it wasn't. Considering i know Sydney's Taylor tech very well i wasn't concerned if it was cracked, As i have seen what can be repaired and do some minor repairs and set ups myself.
It's pretty much rounded off my collection for the time being anyway.  8)

Were the pics uploaded as attachments rather than linked to an online account?
