Greetings from Houston
« on: June 27, 2020, 03:42:35 PM »
Greetings from Houston! I'm in the midst of waiting for a 2007 615ce in Tobacco sunburst to be delivered. I worked in music retail for many years and sold many Taylor's. The sound of a jumbo always was special to me, I had always wanted a Gibson SJ and when I saw this one, particularly being Tobacco Sunburst which I had never seen, I had to have it. Hopefully UPS will be on time and deliver on the scheduled day.

Welcome Texan!

That 615 sounds exciting. The old Taylor jumbos always had a great vibe for me. And I'm a big burst fan as well. Here's a link to a nice tobacco sunburst Taylor I just sold.

Welcome to the forum Texan.  That new Taylor you just got is a real beauty.
