Hi, Folks
« on: September 11, 2014, 05:11:27 PM »
Hello there, everybody,

Just wanted to say hello, and join this forum for fellow guitar lovers (with a strong predilection for Taylors).

My name is David, and I am an addict--I just bought my third Taylor Grand Auditorium model, owning a 314ce, and a 614ce.   Waiting for the 324ce Koa Fall limited to arrive tomorrow.  So, as you might gather, I tend to gravitate towards the 14 series---consider it a crowning glory.

I look forward to meeting new folks with similar interests.

Salute,
D.

Welcome, David!  Yeah, it's a disease, that Taylor addiction...  Before you know it you'll have a dozen of 'em...! ;)

I also gravitate toward the Grand Auditorium body, at least for 6-strings.  It's just right for me...!
