Here's my Taylor, it's waaaay out of my league, and was a total splurge, but I had the means at the same time as the opportunity, and when that happens, well...... ;)

Post by: Cindy on December 09, 2011, 08:04:55 AM: John429, I LOVE the leaf rosette!!!! 8) I wish Taylor would offer this as a BTO option! If I remember correctly, on the other Taylor forum, someone posted about a damaged Taylor neck which had this same type of leaf rosette and inlays, and Taylor was able to replace the neck.

And if you've read through some of the posts here, you will find other maple lovers here, too! Gorgeous guitar! :)

My GA3 has a little striped ebony on its fretboard so I also asked if striped ebony was an option for a BTO fretboard as I had never seen one specifically made that way before. The fretboard and bridge are Macassar Ebony.

Post by: Gary0319 on December 09, 2011, 03:20:52 PM: I'm a dyed in the wool Grand Concert guy and right now I'm down to only 2 Taylors, but they provide a great diversity of tone.

2010 All mahogany BTO with CV bracing, Tortoise binding, 900 series rosette, small diamond fretboard markers, 1 3/4 T5 neck carve, standard scale length. I ordered this mid 2010, before the Mahogany 2011 spring limiteds were intoduced. I like to think that maybe I had some influence on those limiteds, but most likely it's just wishful thinking on my part.

the features on your 914ce are an absolutely stunning combination -
i can't remember the last time one caught my attention that much (whip-lash)

i can only imagine what it sounds like -
i had an adi top 914ce (coco) & a couple of Spring 716ceLTDs (madi),
but combining an adi top with madasgascar ... i'll bet it's amazing :D

congrats

Thanks for the nice comment, Josh, too.

Yes, the tortoise is the body binding too, but it it more understated than the neck binding. When the sunlight doesn't highlight the gold flecks in the body binding it looks more like ebony like it does in the first picture. But, that neck binding is really nice for me to see when I'im playing.,

BTW, I found the BTO guys at Taylor, and my regional rep Aaron Dablow, to be really helpful in guiding me through the many BTO options. Buying a guitar that one has never played, much less one you've never ever seen a picture of, can be nerve wracking. However, the results were beyond my highest expectations and the sound of this guitar is just heavenly.

Kudos to the guys at Taylor....

Aftermarket. I make my own - similar to John Pearse, but smaller.

Actually, the black one (ebony) on the 814 is a John Pearse, but I cut it down to make it smaller.

It's supposed to be the clear permanent pickguard. When I first saw the guitar, I couldn't even see it. It just depends how the light hits it.

Sorry I am entering separate posts. I don't see any multi-quote option here.

The striping of the fretboard...when I purchased this used GA3 from a pawn shop, the top had some dried gook on it (similar to hair gel). I assumed it had gotten on the fretboard and discolored it, but when I spoke with a Taylor rep, he told me they don't stain their ebony. I would up loving its uniqueness.

(http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn311/CindyJohnsonFiles/TaylorGA3neck-1.jpg)

Then one day on the OTHER Taylor forum during a discussion of these striped ebony fretboards, someone posted a fretboard pic (although not of a Taylor) completely covered with thin marks no longer than 1/2" which looked like strands of hair in thickness. It was also a natural-colored fretboard which the owner claimed was striped ebony. It was really different and was the only one I'd ever seen. When I was working on my BTO specs, I asked one of the guys in the BTO department if it was possible to have a fretboard completely covered in striped ebony. They said they have used Macassar ebony on BTOs although I had never seen any pics of Taylors prior to that time.

Like Michael said, the upcharge for the bridge was the same as the fretboard upcharge. :o The fretboard inlay doesn't stand out nearly as much as it does on an all black fretboard, but I was going for a striped theme. The top of my GA3 has shaded striping all over so I also asked for an Adi top with stripes.

The steel strings that came on it were black. ??? And the harmonics were overpowering. When I called to ask what type of strings were used, I was told Elixirs. When I changed the strings and put on Elixir 80/20 lights, the harmonics were gone, and the tone now sounds closer to cedar. I have a Colosi WAHI saddle I may put in to see if it brightens up the tone a little.

Is it Scriptor who also has a Macassar ebony fretboard on his BTO? I believe his is plain, and even the plain ones are gorgeous! :)

i guess it could be the lighting -
the reflection on either side of the fretboard extension & the area outside of the
pickguard closest to the treble waist look like more of a 'vintage'-style finish (to me)

from the angle of the pic, the pickguard stands out a little more & looks 'super-glossy' -
i thought that if the finish was 'hand-rubbed', i was curious if you felt the tone was enhanced

just an observation ...
thanks for the clarification :)

Post by: davwir on December 11, 2011, 11:41:08 PM: I was fortunate enough to have gone to the "Friends And Family" event at the factory yesterday. Although there was a lot of fantastic stuff, I think I got one of the best scores of the day. Meet my new R Taylor Style 1 w/cutaway, Macassar Ebony back, sides and backstrap, Adirondak Spruce top, 65' Radius top, modified x-bracing, and ebony binding.
She plays and sounds as good as she looks too, I love the balance of this guitar!

Post by: michaelw on December 11, 2011, 11:59:28 PM: are you kidding me ???

wow :o

i was thinking that if i were to spec a BTO, that would be it -
adi/macassar, GS, venetian cutaway ...

that is sweet :D

just wondering if it has the 65' radius top with modified x bracing or
the flat top geometry with asymmetrical bracing pattern ...
that & the scale length, neck carve & width at the nut (heh)

congrats !

thanks for sharing the pics, too

standard scale/neck carve, bone saddle & nut (1 3/4") ?
sorry, i got a little carried away ::)

any possibility of posting a link to a soundclip -
i found one, but the echo/room reverb in the room is terrible

if not, if you've played a spring 09 716ceLTD sitka CV/madi,
how would you describe the tonal difference between the two ?

sorry to be such a bother, but ... that is such a cool guitar :D

hey Michael.. good find on that video..
I am 99.5% sure that is the ACTUAL guitar I wound up buying! The top is pretty distinctive in coloring and markings, as is the back, obviously..There was discussion from another forum member that some of the R Taylors that were available had come back unsold from the UK.. Its a 2007, dead mint, unsold.
I am guessing it it true.
I can get you clip, but likely not until next weekend or so.. Its killer though..
I don't know if I'd compare it to Madgascar so much for the low end, but its very even, without a lot of long sustain..
Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: John429 on December 12, 2011, 12:36:04 AM: Davwir - I was just looking at those pix of your guitar and realized I was salivating. I don't believe I've ever salivated over a non-food item before in my life. I agree - you got a great score! Now, I have to go find something to eat.

i rechecked the video at 0:33, froze it & compared the backs -
it is indeed the same guitar (identical grain pattern) ...
since it came from the UK, would it be considered 'imported' ;)

i'd love to hear a clip, when you get a chance

thanks again, for sharing :)

Lighting can affect color in photos from time to time, but this was in natural light with no flash. I took the picture with the wife's Cannon Rebel. The actual color is a "little" darker than what is depicted, but just slightly.

Post by: Magster24 on December 21, 2011, 10:47:59 AM: Here are some shots we took during our "photoshoot" for the 2010 Taylor photo contest. Clearly, we didn't win, but we tried to utilize the "cuteness" factor of our family along with hoping for bonus points being a multiple Taylor owner... Turns out many of you are equally as cute (or cuter) as families and also own multiple Taylors :) Go figure...

Since those pictures were taken, our daughter has turned three and we've added a son (now one). Sadly...no new guitars since then :(

The 614ce is curly, the 612ce is flamey, and the Baby maple is mostly flamey as well. Also below is a shot of the custom TRCs we ordered from Bill Nichols. That verse was our wedding verse.

Hi Brian,
haven't seen you around here lately & i guess y'all are on winter break now

hope you have a wonderful holiday season - merry Christmas & happy New Year :)
just wondering if these are a LTD series, seeing that there are 3 different models -
they look like vintageburst gloss rosewood 400s with more intricate fretmarkers

have a good one

Post by: John429 on December 23, 2011, 02:53:51 AM: I took a bunch of different guitar photos to try to get one I liked to enter into Josh's photo contest. When I was finished, I ended up having two different ones that I really liked. Since the one for the contest will be reduced to a small size to become the facebook profile photo for the Facebook page, I felt the one I entered fit this expectation better than this one (because this one has several smaller items besides the guitar in the photo that you wouldn't really be able to see well in a small Facebook profile-size photo). However, for full size photo enjoyment, I wanted to share this other one that I also liked!

Very beautiful picture of a very beautiful guitar. The "matching" mug is a nice touch. :-)

I've probably already repeated myself too many times regarding how much I like the Taylor 6xx-L30 inlays, but they truly are stunning.

... Does your daughter know about your secret life with her guitar? ;)

Very beautiful picture of a very beautiful guitar. The "matching" mug is a nice touch. :-)

I've probably already repeated myself too many times regarding how much I like the Taylor 6xx-L30 inlays, but they truly are stunning.

... Does your daughter know about your secret life with her guitar? ;)

~ S.

Thank you for your kind comments, spieler :)

Yeah - she knows. She is usually using it, so I had to steal it away late at night from her and take it to the basement for the photo session! She will be using it again tonight for a show in Detroit at some art gallery in a loft in downtown Detroit. I have a 612 ce, which I love dearly, but when it's time to take guitar pictures, I gravitate towards hers right way because of those beautiful inlays. I guess I should take a few pix of my guitar since I have never posted any.

Post by: dsamuel24 on January 03, 2012, 02:30:03 AM: OK, here we go. You've seen one amazing Taylor maple L30 Limited Anniversary edition (a 614ce), now here's another... my 2004 Taylor 615ce L30 Limited Honeyburst (with the most beautiful curly/quilted back I have ever seen). I bought this guitar in 2008 from a guy on the AGF and it has been my main player/songwriter/gigging guitar up until last week when I added a 315ce to my stable. MAN, I love this guitar, and she sounds just as good as she looks. Enjoy...

This is now my main workhorse guitar and we'll let the 615ce hang on the wall and be admired for a while! :)

Both fantastic looking guitars! Of course, for some strange reason, I feel a little partial to that 615ce L30 ;)

The 2008 Fall Limiteds are still my all time favorite Taylor Series.. and yours is a beautiful and unique looking piece of wood for sure..
I think the combination of everything on those was just perfect..
I have the GS and GA in Coco from that series too, and am always looking for a nice GC to complete the "holy trilogy"..lol.
Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: swiftz07 on January 06, 2012, 05:25:33 AM: John and Davwir,

Thank you for the kind words, yes Taylor used a nice piece on this one. In case you are interested, I got it back then from Jim at Guitar Rodeo. Jim usually had a rather large selection to choose from, and great prices to match. I did tell Jim that if at all possible i didn't want sapwood on the cocobolo, and i wanted quartersawn sides...he was kind enough to make sure I got a piece like that.

There are some days this coco set reminds me of brazillian. It is actually a tad darker in real life as compared to the photos :)

The truss rod cover was from Capt Bill, we all know he does great work!

Agreed that the 08' Fall Ltds are nice. They were especially great to look forward too as they were the first guitars to feature the adirondack bracing too.

Blessings,

zeke

Post by: dsamuel24 on January 09, 2012, 02:17:10 PM: What are some folks doing to post pics so small? Is there another method (other than posting pics to Photobucket, et al, and then copying the "direct link" of the web-posted photo into the body of the UTGF post text) that is allowing people to post pics in a tiny format? Obviously there is, since it's happening, and I'm wondering if we can try to bring them up to speed on the way to post much larger pics, for all of our benefit? Can we inform users (in a sticky, perhaps?) how to use the "other/better" way so that we can all see the beautiful detail that only a large photo can show? I've seen 3-5 users in the last week post tiny pics (tempalias... bluetonic... TP516...) and thought it might be time to educate the forum as a whole. ;D Cindy? Michael? Josh? Would this be helpful? (If so, and none of you have the time/desire to post it, I can do so.)

Dustin, some of the smaller pics have been uploaded as attachments rather than being linked to Photobucket/Flickr. With the pic of my TRC, I opted for a smaller pic which would enlarge somewhat when clicked on. When I linked it to a full size pic, it was just TOO HUGE! Not everyone will want to go the Photobucket/Flickr route though...

Not everyone will want to go the Photobucket/Flickr route though...

I do think the size limit of 128k per pic/192k per all 4 pics is severely limiting, and that the "default" method of pic posting should be the Photobucket route, for the sake of ALL viewers to he forum. I understand that some won't want to do it, and that's fine, but from what I understand, the steps aren't too much easier to do it the attachment way, and with the limitations, it dosen't make much sense (at least not to me).

REGARDING YOUR TRC DEAL... I guess my having Photoshop on my PC and having an intimate knowledge of how to edit, adjust, re-size, crop and otherwise manipulate photos BEFORE posting them to Photobucket helps me to maintain a consistent, large-but-not-too-big size format for all the pics I post to a forum. Maybe you and others don't/won't have that knowledge/software access.

I did post a "tutorial" on how to post pics the "Photobucket way" on both the Taylor section and the Introduce Yourself section for those who want to know how to go that route.

i think that perhaps the easiest route for most will be to upload a pic from their computer's
hard drive as an attachment to post them here (the image will need to be clicked on) -
if the pic (file) is too large, it can always be reduced in size using Paint (on a PC) &
i think that around 150-200k is a good size pic (no need to scroll to see the entire pic)

dustin, i didn't realize that there was 192K limit, as i've posted 10 smaller pics, 56k or so
at once in one post, but i agree that pics that are larger than avatar size would be preferred :)

thanks for posting the Photobucket method of posting pics here -
it be nice for it to go into a permanent FAQ section ... Josh, you listening buddy ;)

Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: BigSkyTaylorPlayer on January 09, 2012, 06:00:03 PM: There is a limit of 128kb per item - total limit is 192kb for 4 items. That is pretty small and I had to really manipulate my photos to get them up here. Still working on the Mini. However, even with the limit I would prefer just being able to attach a picture rather than going thru another website - it's why I don't post anything at AGF. That's just me however, me and computers really don't get along very well.

thanks again for the Photobucket user outline - i need to open an account there because it seems to work much better here than what i use

play on :D

Cool. We're all getting a bead on this deal together, eh? I edited my post above to reflect the edits you made... ALL GOOD! Thanks.

WOW, look at that back! It's just unreal (dare I say unfair?) what Taylor can do in guitar making. We are a fortunate bunch!

Post by: ataylor on January 10, 2012, 11:51:25 AM: My humble submission to this thread: my 210. I think I got a really great set of woods with this one -- check out the nice grain on the top and the really nice silking. Also, the sapele on my guitar is really nice -- from a distance you get the typical striped look, but closer in the grain almost looks more like mahogany.

My 210 has the signature Taylor "sparkle" but also has a nice dry, woody, punchy tone in the bass and mids that I don't hear often when I've played other Taylors. It records beautifully and people have always given compliments about how it sounds live -- I've had several people ask if it's an old 510 before and they can't believe it's a 210.

Anyways, I'm a big fan of understated beauty in guitars and this is about as simple of a Taylor as you'll find. I love it!

That 514 is nice. Reminds me of Martin's 15M series and the Santa Cruz 1929 line, which is a good thing.

This my 2011 414ce Spring LTD - and my first Taylor. For my ears and hands, it's the best guitar I've ever played (and I'm actively looking). It's a woody, breathy orchestra on your lap.

Photos thanks to Willcutt... I still haven't had the time to take my own proper photos. And I've acquired 2 more specialty Taylors since that also need some photos!

Hey jdc... I posted a tutorial thread that got made into a "sticky" on this very subject.

Click here http://www.unofficialtaylorguitarforum.com/index.php?topic=776.0 (http://www.unofficialtaylorguitarforum.com/index.php?topic=776.0) to read the instructions on how to do this.

Title: Acquired in Dec 2011
Post by: cigarfan on February 03, 2012, 08:22:02 AM: Had a windfall from my Dad's estate last year and promised myself I would attempt to achieve something I've wanted to do for years. Upgrade the Yamaha dreadnought I've been playing since the early 70's.

Upgrade ... what am I talking about? This was a light year jump. And not only one but two guitars.

First, a Spring 2011 Limited Edition Taylor GS-LTD Mahogany ES which has such a nice throated mid-range that rings for so long. It's like I've depressed the sustain pedal or something.

nice :)
congrats :D

i was wondering if there was any other designation than 710L9 on the soundhole label,
as the standard 710L9s were engelmann/eirw, or perhaps it was a LTD run ordered by a
specific shop, as has been done in past by buffalo bros, dave's, gruhn's & wildwood guitars

either way, i imagine it's a pretty rare bird ...

Says "Short Scale" between the Model & Ser#s. I got it from the orig. owner who bought it from a store somewhere, that ordered it that way to compete w/very high end Martins etc.
I talked to my Rep @ Taylor ,he confirmed everything,and said records indicated it was AA Brazilian.

just wondering if you've A/B'd it with your engelmann/eirw 710ceL9 ???

i'd be curious to hear your take on the contrasts
between those two guitars & the 410ce as well :D

play on ;D
Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: S MS Picker on February 14, 2012, 07:30:33 PM: The Braz & Adi is much more powerful sounding,while the EIR/Eman is a little on the "sweeter" side. Both have great response and tone only different. The 410 SS is a killer instrument.Rattle the windows volume w/more mids.Cuts a mic like a razor,have to be careful not to red line by moving too close.On a whim, last Sun. @ open mic,I miked it as well as using the ES. Skeet(sound man) set me up out front,direct from the amp,SM 57 on the amp,SM 58 on the guitar .Amp is a Marshall AS50R,which I used for right ear monitor,left side fills sounded great. With Skeet at the board,it's the best stage sound I've heard in a while.
After my set, the host played it w/2 solo guitarist/singers and a "Jam" group.The house sound blew me away.The 410 fit perfectly and sounded great.
Both myself and Bucky got great comments on our sound.I still have a couple beers in the hole. ;)

The 614ce is curly, the 612ce is flamey, and the Baby maple is mostly flamey as well.

I'm pretty sure "curly" and flamey" are the same thing.

(http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd357/magster24_pics/Guitars/194.jpg)

Here is the pic...it looks like one of the guitars is quilted/bird's eye maple. I used to own a 614ce which had the flamed maple, but if I had known they could have made it with the quilted maple, that would have been my choice.

Is flamed maple more popular than quilted maple? Does anyone know why it seems to be used more often?
Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: Steve on February 15, 2012, 06:16:43 PM: Taylor doesn't use Birdseye maple for their guitars. They use quilt or flame (aka "curly"). I think Bob may have used Birdseye many, man years ago on a couple of guitars that he actually built, but I'm pretty sure it's never been used on production guitars.

Curly Maple is more popular, if for no other reason that it's far more readily available...

Post by: michaelw on February 15, 2012, 09:44:16 PM: i've seen more 'pure' bird's eye on electric maple guitar necks & fretboards,
but there have been some regular production Taylors with 'mixed-figure' maple

here's a good video that explains the different types of maple -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJMLE7G2IIk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJMLE7G2IIk)
around 2:40 flamed, curly, fiddleback & tiger stripe come from the same tree (different cuts)
around 4:10 is about quilted maple ... in terms of highly figured quilted maple, it's pretty rare

perhaps not specifically listed on the BTO sheet (a & aa-quilt),
but Bob does describe a couple of different types of quilt
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJMLE7G2IIk
5:18 flat sawn quilt (bubbly)
(http://inlinethumb46.webshots.com/43309/2974879900081788860S600x600Q85.jpg)

(http://inlinethumb37.webshots.com/48100/2999162520081788860S600x600Q85.jpg)
imho, the naming of the figuring can be subjective, like tone ...
curly, flamed, fiddleback & tiger-stripe could all fall under 'flamed' category, as they are not 'quilted'

Of course, BTO's aren't really built by everyone looking at pictures. They're built with BTO sheets and a computer program.

A computer program that lists neither "sausage" or "bubble" quilt...

looks yummy ;D
very nice '3-link' combined with a touch of honeyburst (looks like) :D
the outer parts of the upper bout especially stand out &
i like that the panels are not separated with purfling lines

i imagine one could make a request with the dealer when placing a BTO order &
it would be dependent on the wood sets available (which are selected by people)
2 or 3 piece back & when specifying premium quilt, it could be pretty amazing, imho :)

Sure the wood's selected by people. I'm not sure what that means, though. If you put "sausage quilt" on a BTO sheet, you're going to get "quilt". The person selecting the wood isn't going to contact the Rep and ask if a wood set is "sausagey" enough; that's just not gonna' happen...

What's offered through BTO is dictated by the wood they're able to procure. If it's not on the current BTO sheet, it's because they don't have enough of it to offer in the BTO program...

Actually I'd call that the honey sunburst. My previous 614ce had a back that was colored very similarly. If it were just an edgeburst, then the center of the back would be much blonder in color.

Wow, three posts of the same thing!

And it's Edgeburst, not Honey Sunburst...

LOL! You really need to check out your facts, Left Coaster. Mine was a modify-a-model which I specifically ordered with an Engelmann top and the Honey Burst finish. At the time, it only came with the option of 2 choices of bursts: tobacco and honey.

Like I said earlier, the edgeburst is coloring only around the edge...not the center.

So there you have it...FOUR posts of the same thing! ::)

;)

EDIT: Astually it was my 914ce where I had the choice of these two color bursts. 'The 614ce had these two plus a few other colors. However, the above is definitely honey burst. :)

Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: ataylor on February 17, 2012, 08:59:12 PM: A few factors could explain the differences --

Lighting -- since Taylor's sunbursts tend to be a little more delicate and less opaque than say, a Gibson, they seem to be more susceptible to change depending on the lighting. For example, sometimes Taylor's tobacco sunburst looks darker like Gibson, and other times it has a brownish or even reddish tint in the dark areas when under certain lighting conditions (especially casual flash photography).

Age -- not necessarily that the sunburst has aged (although that could be a factor in some cases), but that Taylor's sunbursts have changed over the years (I personally think they just keep getting better) and I think they're currently darker and more well-defined like the photo Left Coaster posted -- likely because they've introduced several different edgeburst type finishes for lighter bursts?

Variation -- when I took the Taylor tour a couple years ago, they were still doing the sunbursts by hand -- which means you're going to have variation from guitar to guitar, day to day, even if it's the same person doing every single one.

Just a few guesses -- don't want to get into another sunburst debate :)

This is what Honey Sunburst normally looks like. As you can see, it's much darker around the edges:

This looks more like tobacco to me; however, my time is too valuable to quibble over the color. When the past issues of Wood & Steel are available, they will show the previous burst colors that used to be available. :)

hi left coaster,
i understand that you were trying to show an example -
Cindy has originally asked a question regarding different type of figured maple &
all the pics shown were of other member's guitars, then the pics & discussion
turned to different finishes & the pics, again were still of other member's guitars

a link is fine & posts have been edited to show them

also, i wondering if you might happen to have a pic or two of your 314 ???
i really like the other pics that you posted ... thanks for sharing them :D

Very nice! The black tuner buttons are a nice touch -- did you swap the tuners out or just the buttons? If the latter, mind sharing a little on that process and where you got them? :)
Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: Steve on February 18, 2012, 10:42:58 AM: I just swapped out the buttons but, to be honest, it was so long ago I don't recall where I got them. I'm pretty sure I bought them locally. If I recall, they were from All Parts.

It was really pretty easy. Taylor was still using Grovers back then. A simple backing out of the screw, sliiping the new knob on and tightening the screw back in was all it took...

Left Coaster, I love the look of the top. It has a little bit of a striped or shaded dark/light look to it. :) Very purty. BTW, did it come with the pick guard factory installed, or did you add that later?

Very nice! I'm really close to getting one of those but I'm holding out to see if they offer a wider neck width down the road...

The great thing about Taylors is that they don't have to look fancy to sound and play great -- I'll put my 210 up against any of Taylor's dreadnoughts any day! :)

Out of curiosity, is the top cedar? And the added striping is what kind of wood?

I asked for some striping on my Adi top with the shaded edgeburst:

(http://i831.photobucket.com/albums/zz235/MusicForumPics/Taylor%20BTO/027.jpg)

My GA3 has a little striped ebony on its fretboard so I also asked if striped ebony was an option for a BTO fretboard as I had never seen one specifically made that way before. The fretboard and bridge are Macassar Ebony.

And the back is Madagascar Rosewood.

The top is premium Adi with Adi bracing. I also asked for some striping on the top. I didn't necessarily mean striping from the grain...I have a sitka top that has 1/2" alternating light and dark striping across the top (not from the grain). But hey, this one has a striped top. ;) And the fretboard has striping on it too...instead of just being ebony, it is Macassar Ebony. There was an upcharge for that wood on the fretboard and the bridge, but it's beautiful! :)

I wanted a striped theme...the only other thing I could have gotten instead was a sinker redwood top that would have had striping, but I do LOVE the edgeburst, and I don't think I would have liked an edgeburst on sinker redwood. :D

You're spot on mate. This is indeed a 2002 Taylor. I'll post some pictures of the back when I get home. Been traveling for business these few days. Can't wait to get home and start playing my Taylor again. :)

How do you post photos here?

In order to post images here and on other forums, one needs to first post the images on an image hosting web site like PhotoBucket. Such sites typically offer their service free of charge. Once the image has been uploaded to an image hosting site, one copies the IMG code that appears below the up loaded image and then pastes it into the post one is writing on this forum.

How do you post photos here?
hi ice
it is possible to directly upload & post relatively small pictures here -
any pictures posted in this manner, i believe, are only viewable to
registered members that are logged-in ('guests' will not see them)

how to post pictures without uploading them to a photo hosting site

1. click on 'Attachments and other options' ( lower left-hand side of the post text box )

2. click on 'Choose File' radio button on the left, in the 'Attach' search bar

3. locate & click on the the picture you wish to post

4. click on 'open'

5. if you wish to post more than one picture, click on ' (more attachments) '

6. repeat steps 2-4 for each picture -
i believe that 4 pictures may be the limit per post, but that is subject to change

7. when you're done adding text, click on the 'Preview' radio button on the lower right hand side (to the right of 'Post')

8. if the preview post looks good, click on the 'Post' radio button

9. done :)

hope this helps :D

edited due to pic upload (limitation) settings changed

I think that the quality of that guitar really stands out even with a old web cam picture. Plus, that is a beautiful fretboard inlay, Taylor really did a great job on that design.

Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: Strumming Fool on September 08, 2012, 11:07:38 AM: Thanks Cigar Fan-

Sometimes I really get caught up in the '90s Taylor mystique. My two '90s Taylors both have such incredible sound, but I also know that part of their mojo is the fact that they are older, and have matured so rewardingly! Gives me something to look forward to with my other three, which already sound exceptional to me. Then there's that new BTO coming late October as well! We're all truly blessed to have these wonderful companions to help us make the music that brings us such joy....

I love the wide diameter rosette. If I'm not mistaken, 1996 was the last year for that style of rosette.
Title: Re: Show us pics of your Taylor!
Post by: michaelw on September 09, 2012, 04:39:54 PM: in terms of GAs, the 94 XX-MC/RS & 95 GA-WS/KS/BE models had that style rosette, along the 96 914c -
in 97, the rosette placement (& diameter) changed to where it was closer to the soundhole

Strumming, i was curious what type of bridge pins are in your GA-KS now ???
to me, they look dark (wood?) with a lighter color dot inlay (MOP/ab ?)

Post by: Captain Jim on October 09, 2012, 07:04:28 PM: Well, how 'bout a photo of me WITH my Taylor (GSmini)? We are in a beautiful place, I was a professional photographer for 32 years (before retiring), we were on the beach, the light was right... I asked my lovely wife if she'd "stand over there, get this in the background, and shoot..."

(http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z440/eiwiz/IMG_2754Jim1e.jpg)

Taken with a point & shoot.

I sent it to Taylor... they give a free t-shirt for "photo of the week." One of my friends said, "Didn't you used to make quite a bit more than a t-shirt for taking photos?" ;)

"Yes, but I was always on the other side of the camera. Plus, I have a nice photo for the music room... someday, when we get home." 8)

Best wishes,
Captain Jim

Not bad. Is that headstock rose an inlay sticker? I've got a similar one on my fretboard:

Post by: mgap on October 29, 2012, 08:59:21 PM: Well I finally got my new guitar. Early this month I was at a Road show and found a great deal on a 814ce Spring LTD, so I decided to go with it. It sounded great , felt just perfect and I really liked the way it looked.

Here are a few pictures.

The top looks like it is all one piece. 5 latches are a bit to many for me.

Great looking guitar! I love the streaked ebony fretboard! I wish mine had streaks.
Title: Re: Taylor Guitar Pictures!
Post by: Strumming Fool on November 10, 2012, 09:17:28 PM: Thank you Sir!

I asked for marbled ebony on the headstock, fretboard and bridge, and that's what they gave me. I think that the koa trimming and the streaked ebony give a nice twist to an otherwise traditional look.

Post by: Floridartist on November 20, 2012, 05:42:42 PM: The guitar has that warm sound I was seeking, though the action is a little high, the neck has a very slight under curve, which is very correctable, seems the store didnt do a set up for me, so I ordered the 1/4 wrench from Taylorware, It would had been nice if the wrench came with the guitar, it kind of holds me up doing my setup, so I live with patience, as of today, this 716ce is still a keeper, there are sure some fine Tayor Guitar pictures on this forum, thanks

my taylor came with a hex key. i rremoved the rod cover and found no hex adj...i need a wrench. i've got all kinds of wrenches buat nothing that will work without removing the strings. the really sad part is that i didn't know how bad my taylor plays until i bought a cheapo ebay acoustic/electric with the string really low to the frets...plays so easy. so i can pay for a set up or buy the Taylor tool. seems like when you pay over $XXX for a guitar, it should be set up.

edited for price & to remove dealer reference -
please contact Taylor Customer Service for resolution if the action is out-of-spec
Title: Re: Taylor Guitar Pictures!
Post by: Floridartist on November 21, 2012, 09:19:46 PM: My patience didn't hold to well on the wait for the $4.00 wrench I ordered from Taylor yesterday, with the Thanksgiving week on us who's to know when it will be mailed, so into the shop I went, looked for a 1/4" socket, found it, off to the grindstone I went at it, grinded it smaller, and shortened it, smooth all the edges out, (very important) went up to the new Taylor, took off the truss rod cover, the new socket went in like a charm, gave it two 1/4" turns, waaaa laaaa it brought the action down nicely, then I took just a tad off the saddle, upped a 1/8th on the rod, Perfect, action, the new medium gauge strings are settling in just as nicely, Nothing like having a set up, even if I had to do it myself (carefully)
I guess I will keep this guitar

Title: 2011 Taylor GC-Koa non-cutaway Guitar Pictures!
Post by: unclesally1 on December 30, 2012, 10:16:47 PM: I Just got a new 2011 Taylor GC-Koa non-cutaway. This guitar is absolutely stunningly beautiful... Plays and sounds amazingly right out of the box. Intonation is perfect. All notes are consistent and ring out clearly with no buzzing even though the action is low and easy. I'm a major pain in the arse when it comes to being satisfied with an acoustic guitar... I gotta say, this little guitar is a dream. Maybe not everyone's taste as the smaller body and shorter scale neck isn't terribly loud acousticlly,,, but for me this guitar fits me on all levels. Perfect couch picking size and actually sounds pretty darned good plugged in for recording...still experimenting with that, but so far, so good.

Does anyone else here own one of these models? Would be curious to get your opinions on this GC non-cutaway body style model.... Here's the link to the actual guitar i just bought. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=c1q0oDKRuDI

My GA3 has a little striped ebony on its fretboard so I also asked if striped ebony was an option for a BTO fretboard as I had never seen one specifically made that way before. The fretboard and bridge are Macassar Ebony.

Actually, my dealer was at Taylor shortly after I placed my order - he was emailing me pics so I could choose what I liked...Larry Breedlove and Joe Bina also helped me with my binding/rosette decision as well...

That is so great! I too was emailed pics and could choose what I wanted! It was hard to know being my first how it was going to look like in the end but I am very pleased! I had also spoke with Ben V at Taylor a FEW times on the phone as well.

Great sinker top, and I like your choice of appointments. While I go nuts for wildly grained coco (and sapwood too), I love the look of your cocobolo - so rich and almost stately....well done!

The guitar belongs to Cedarkoa599. I posted the pictures since they weren't visible in Cedarkoa599's post.

Post by: mgap on February 23, 2013, 09:20:15 AM: Here is my newest. 2004 655ce. I am having tons of fun with it, but wow it can wear me out playing 12 strings. That part is almost behind me now though, and I can now play and it is just plain fun. This is my first maple guitar, my first jumbo, not my first 12 string. I had a Takamine 400 for a short time, it was one of those lawsuit models, 35 or so years old, it was at the end of its life. This one is awesome, plays great, looks fantastic, and is more comfortable than the Takamine(dreadnaught).
I bought this one from a UTGF member and had the best buying experience, so buying form folks here can be great. So here are a couple of photos

Such a pretty guitar - the koa back is especially nice with good figure and varying color. If the one on the way has equally pretty koa, it will come down to your preference of either the sparkle of the abalone or the earthiness of the wood inlays. Of course, tone and playability should trump appearance - good luck!

Oh my... OH MY. My decision is going to be a tough one!! My one of these is arriving in 2/3 weeks, my dealer got it wrong and delivered me the older model. So I have the older one at the moment, and then when this arrives I have to choose. You've made my decision harder! :)

Post by: Steve Mo on October 13, 2013, 08:06:30 PM: Hi Nikki,

I was torn between a 814ce, K14ce and the K14ce that I bought. Glad I did as the appointments and craftsmanship are superb. I'm a big fan of wooden craftsmanship so all the wooden inlay, binding etc ticked all the remaining boxes and sealed the deal. You're doing the right thing waiting for your one to arrive before making your decision. But I can already guess which way you'll go :)

The one I have at the moment has wood binding although its Maple. I always seem to name my guitars (I'm not even sure I do it on purpose.. it just.. happens) and like a fool I've named this one Bobby. And boom, an emotional attachment has happened! So we'll see. I'll keep you posted :) One of the things I am conscious of is the fact that with the guitar I have at the moment, the wood has had time to age, whereas the one that's arriving has been made within the last ten weeks. How did you find the tone of the koa with it being so new?

Many people comment that the Koa develops it's sound over a period of years, so I guess in that respect it's a keeper. I really liked the tone from new and can only say that it is beginning to 'soften' or 'warm' if that is the right expressions. The more I play it the better it sounds. Not sure if that's the guitar starting to open up or just the bond strengthening. Either way, it's my first Koa so I'm enjoying the whole learning curve with it. Something really special about these guitars that's difficult to explain and it's gonna have to be a pretty spectacular guitar to knock this one of its spot. :)

I know how you feel :) Whilst my K14ce is the 2011 model, I am still its first owner so it is essentially brand new. Its going to be such a tough decision!! People keep saying sarcastically that it must be so hard to have the choice between two amazing guitars - but what it comes down to is, I'm putting a lot of money out there, so I need to make sure that I'm 100% happy with my choice :) Although I guess in some ways whichever guitar becomes the keeper, they're both amazing, so it's always going to be a win!

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit and usually drawn from envy. Wouldn't worry too much about it as the only opinion that really matters is yours.

New pics of my new 2013 FLTD 514e:

Beautiful guitar Strumming Fool - makes me very anxious to get mine (due in late Nov.). Curious about the tuner keys and bridge pins - are they BTO requests by you, mods you've made, or just the way it came? They're very nice, but different from the photos on the Taylor site.

Thanks,

[NEVERMIND: Just saw your post in the "Modified Taylors" thread. Good taste mods imho.]

The new one has now been made and delivered, and I did indeed decide to go for the swap. Was difficult to see the one on the left go, but the one on the right was just slightly better. So here are some pics! First both guitars together, and then the one I took home.

I did - Madascar rosewood tuner buttons. I also replaced the ebony bridge pins with boxwood bridge pins. However, I wouldn't recommend that - there was a noticeable loss in tonal quality. I ended up replacing these with Bob Colosi dyed bone bridge pins (matching the mahogany inlays on the top) - much improved tone with these....

Post by: mgap on November 19, 2013, 03:23:33 PM: Well my 514ce WW CV arrived yesterday. It is a beauty! I tried this and the new 514c FLTD and this one won out. I had gone in fully prepared to be wowed over by the FLTD but this is one that I have had my eye on for quit some time. The last picture shows both of my 514's the new WW CV in front of my Cedar top 514, there is a big difference in color, and a huge difference in sound. The older 514 has a nice mellow tone as you would expect from cedar, the new WW CV is a howitzer in comparison. Much more volume, crisper highs and excellent lows, and as you would expect from mahogany the mid range is crystal clear. This new baby has the most volume of any of my acoustics including my 2012 SLTD 814ce Cocobolo. Here are the stats:

Hey kcnbys, If you're ever interested in a GS8e, let me know. I've had one for a few years now and am thinking of getting a different guitar at some point. The sustain on this GS8 is something else, isn't it!

just wondering which dealer your guitar you chose your guitar from -
i thought i might have seen a picture like that in the "more than a store" W&S article, but no ???

does your GS mini happen to have a mahogany top also ;)
Title: Re: Taylor Guitar Pictures!
Post by: Marc on January 14, 2014, 05:23:56 PM: I actually selected it at the showroom of Taylor Europe, because there weren't any stores in Holland with the whole 500 series in stock. The technicians could remove the pickguard for me while I was there as well. It was a great experience having all these guitars at hand.

:) no, regretfully I bought the GS Mini before they made the mahogany version.

Post by: michaelw on January 14, 2014, 05:32:13 PM: cool 8)
i was wondering because of the wall T5s & the acoustics below them, the neon sign, that's off,
the bar stools, which i had figured had Taylor Quality Guitars silkscreened on the cushions &
that i didn't think that the visitor's center in el cajon had an area that looked quite like that :-\

does the entrance to the lobby have double glass front doors with cast Taylor headstock pull handles on them ???
or, again, i may be confusing it with another picture that i've seen of a dealer's shop somewhere else

yep, it's a 614cL2 :)
at the time, over 10 years ago, it was called 900 grade engelmann,
but i think it goes by either a-grade or premium engelmann now

Michael,
Ha, another engel top with maple, cool! And your back and neck combo is like some long-lost twin to mine, albeit blue!

The engel/maple is a glorious tonal combo, IMHO ...and you guys seem to agree, lol! Heck, it's like the whole family is out to play! Enjoy!

I too have always like maple Taylors, but the standard GA models did sound a bit too thin for my taste. The Engelmann top combined with quilted maple gives the guitar more warmth, and the CV bracing added some nice bottom thump as well. Note decay is still typical of maple, but this guitar has a strong, rich, fundamental voice, which makes it a joy to play after all my other guitars with more harmonic overtones...

Yes it is beauty. I noticed that the fingerboard is the smokey style, I love it. How long ago did you get this? I am thinking it must be one of the first non solid ebony fingerboards Taylor released.

I ordered it in September of 2012, shortly after Bob Taylor talked about the ebony situation. I wanted that look, and would choose it again for my next BTO, because it makes each guitar more of a one-off. Since that photo, I've changed the bridge pins to dyed bone to match the koa trim, and I changed the tuner buttons to snakewood for a similar effect. It's really a colorful guitar now!

Taylor has been selling guitars with marbled fretboards for years. I think they have rebranded what they have been using for a long time as smoky. I do believe that in the past the marbling was less extreme in many example. But then again many of their new guitars vary now as well.

I have only recently found how immense macassar sounds, and have always loved cedar (and redwood's close 'nuff ;) ). But the Florentine cut has always been my aesthetic pref over the Venetian since Taylor first used it. That this is a 12F makes it even more special. That has simply got to sound as gorgeous as it looks ...enjoy!!

What I have noticed is that I seem to like the "plainer" or less fancy models. I don't really like all the bling and figured wood. But that's just me. I think my favorite is the 700 series in sunburst. Just classic and beautiful.

Here is my 314ce which I got in October 2014. Also plain and awesome. It was a barely used 2013 model I got on ebay:

My GA3 has a little striped ebony on its fretboard so I also asked if striped ebony was an option for a BTO fretboard as I had never seen one specifically made that way before. The fretboard and bridge are Macassar Ebony.

That's a real beauty! If I wasn't the proud new owner of my 816ce I'd be extremely jealous. As it is, I'm only moderately jealous ;)

I have a question. Is there an official name or description of those tuners? They really look special, particularly with the overall look of your guitar.

I just realized that I forgot to post pics of my most recent acquisition ( Fall 2014). I think the rest are somewhere on this thread.

Those are Gotoh Tuners in an antique gold finish with black tuner buttons. Taylor offers these tuners on some of their higher end models, limited editions and as a custom option. I'm about to replace the buttons with snakewood buttons that should go very well with the koa. Hope that helps...

That's a real beauty! If I wasn't the proud new owner of my 816ce I'd be extremely jealous. As it is, I'm only moderately jealous ;)

I have a question. Is there an official name or description of those tuners? They really look special, particularly with the overall look of your guitar.

Nice Taylors. Love the look of Koa and hey look at that your K66 is a Custom shop Wildwood, I bet it pays real nice. Also beautiful Cocobolo on the PS16, it is one of my favorite woods.

Thanks! I am anxious to play a 2015 revoiced 612. I've heard wonderful things about them, and Slay's certainly looks the part (although a 614). I do love the blonde look though of the natural back and sides... I wish Taylor would do some runs sans brown sugar stain.

Ahhh, there's nothing like playing live. Solo is rewarding, but there's something about the communication with bandmates that is truly exhilarating!

Post by: roxfan25 on March 16, 2017, 05:43:52 PM: After 6 years of wanting one, I bought a baritone today. I decided to get the 326e Ltd Baritone-6. I like the sound of a sitka/rosewood baritone better, but not twice-the-price better! Tasmanian blackwood is a good bang for the buck, I think.

ill try it later, but i think photobucket has a link to direct image or forums

the "code" for image is img image link /img (the omg and url are in brackets to use them
url and /url are for website links

photo bucket has a link that copies a link to their site and the image, so using the insert image button will give you the wrong code

if memory serves me correct, you can just paste that link directly into the post (or you can modify it to have only the img tags

hope this makes sense

Post by: N+1 on April 16, 2017, 05:10:19 PM: I had a long-term plan to save up for a 814ce, but since I already have an 810e, I wasn't at all sure than such a move wouldn't be 800-series overkill. But it gave me a pleasant something to ponder about, you know? And it gave me a semi-rational reason to keep returning to the guitar shop with a vaguely purposeful aim of becoming thoroughly familiar with the differences between the 810 and the 814.

Anyway, there came a day, a few weeks ago, when I started to wonder whether I couldn't find some of the attributes of the 814 among the various models in the 200 DLX series and save a lot of money. I know - stupidly optimistic, but the sort of game that's fun to play in a guitar shop. Well, there in the shop was a 214ce-QM DLX Special Edition. Of course it is nothing like an 814, but it may be, with all that quilted maple, the most beautiful guitar I've ever held and played. And, glory upon glories, it had a tone that was nothing at all like any of my other guitars.

Long story short: I bought it, and the pipedream of owning an 814ce has receded far enough to be lost in future mist. Instead, I now have this to play with:

Honestly, the Yams are EXCELLENT all solid guitars...the Taylor is my shining star, but hte Yams get as much if not more
playing time.

My wife wanted to name our second son "Taylor," and I agreed on the premise that I could get a new guitar...so this is how I got my first,

Yes, very beautiful. HOWEVER; I noticed an extreme dangerous sign on your guitar, a sign of a deadly plague that could affect your physical health. Please pack this guitar immediately, with plastic bag, put it in the case, box it. I will send you shipping instructions and pre-paid label to me so I can properly and safely dispose it for you ;D

Post by: Shutterbug on September 13, 2019, 10:01:10 AM: I don't imagine too many people have seen one of these, as from what I was told only six were ever made. It's a 2007 Doyle Dykes Deluxe Prototype built in El Cajon. I bought it at a "Friends & Family Sale" at the Taylor factory many moons ago. I wish I still had it. Things got a bit lean for me for a while and I had to let it go:

Title: Re: Taylor Guitar Pictures!
Post by: 416ce on March 12, 2020, 01:00:19 PM: Well, as it goes there is great talks with run outs and bear claws etc. This has really no sign of a bear claw effect unlike my other acoustic that has the. But surely you can see the run out here clearly. Some like 'em and maybe a majority won't as well for cosmetic values and tonal sound it gets.

Is there a thread where you can listed to the others snippet/samplers of their Taylor? I can search i guess can I hehe! ;)

I have really heard the tonal sounds of all other Taylor models but which are known for a bit brighter sound but very rich with separation tonally.

The Ovangkol is the new norm aside from RW/Mada.

Thanks!

In my experience, ovangkol delivers a power and depth similar to rosewood but without the mid range scoop, which is why it provides a better balance IMO.

Well described. Intricate in a way as you play. It gives back what you put in per say. The power and growl is there. Well at least to my playing and ears of course! ;D

It's laziness on the part of the poster. Look at the first few posts in this thread, way back on page 1. Those photos are perfectly sized.

Post by: rafrey on September 05, 2022, 09:08:06 PM: Finally got my hands on a Taylor GTe Blacktop! Perfectly sized for the niche it needs to fill, right between a GS Mini and Grand Auditorium! Sounds fuller than a GS Mini but is more portable than a GA, especially with the awesome aero case! Look great and sounds awesome. I think this body shape is going to be one of their best sellers.

For the record, I did pick up an Urban Ash model last year, but it had terrible fret sprout that actually cause some cuts on my hand so I returned it. It felt and sounded good and I really wanted to like it but I couldn't justify the price for that level of QA.

Anyway, I'm happier with this one because of the awesome matte black top!

My old 1999 410. Ovangkol back and sides. 1st year for NT neck. Looking to get a 214ceDlx next month. Always loved the tone and playability of Taylor guitars above all.
Nice! I have always loved my 400 series Taylor (since 2002). Really versatile guitars.
