Great trip to Taylor service centre in Holland.
« on: June 29, 2015, 10:58:17 AM »
I thought this might be of interest to ya'll, I got sent over to Holland to the Taylor distribution and service centre in Holland for some training last week, met some lovely employees from Taylor, played a few stunning guitars, and was taught a few bits and pieces that I didn't know before. The care and passion these guys have for their products is remarkable. :)

Hope you find the snaps interesting, in particular clock that giant racking full of lovely Taylor guitars!

Cheers guys, it was a lovely trip, I feel very lucky indeed!

I'm afraid Craig all we spoke about was very much from the dealers point of view, so although I know they do dink repair there, amongst many other things, I couldn't say how much it would cost at all.

All the best,
Will.
