Title: Looking for Taylor Living Jewels Koi
Post by: dangarrido on January 16, 2017, 07:52:22 PM
Hey everyone,

I am currently looking for the beautiful Taylor Living Jewels Koi guitar. In case any of you have it and are willing to sell it, or know somewhere I can find it, I would highly appreciate it.

Thank you in advance!

hi dan,
WELCOME ! ! !
to the forum :)

there's one on reverb -
although, imho, the $ is, how we say, a bit 'optomistic'

have they really gone up that much in 3 years ???

Thank you so much for the info, michael!

The price is a bit higher than expected... Might have to save for a couple months more to make this dream come true  :P

Speaking of being just a little out of range.  This is a guitar I have wanted for some time, and it will be some time before I could get one.

Hope Springs eternal.  I am not so sure my wallet will ever spring forth that much hope err... cash!

Yeah, I'm right there with you on the Liberty Tree T5's...  They sure ask big bucks on those guitars...! :o

I've recently seen a few others offered for sale:  I wouldn't have minded picking up Maryland (https://reverb.com/item/3174089-taylor-liberty-tree-t5-maryland-edition-2008-liberty-flag-motif?gclid=CMXOrvPbuNACFZKCaQodGQIOfw&pla=1) (which still ultimately sold for more than I think I'd be willing to pay), given it was one of the original 13 colonies -- and the source of the wood; South Carolina (https://reverb.com/item/3299156-taylor-t5-liberty-tree-south-carolina-edition?gclid=COKxifLbuNACFQeoaQodlJMMgw&pla=1) is still for sale, though, asking about the same as Vermont... :-\

not sure what the closing date was on
this one, or what the auction fees were

here's a couple of 614ce's, made for the tokyo guitar show in 2012 -
they're grand auditorium cutaways with electronics,
but the figuring on the quilted maple is quite nice 8)
