Taylor just had to do this to me
« on: August 01, 2020, 09:35:08 AM »
So after satisfying my Jones for a larger mahogany top Taylor guitar, my new AD27e, that satisfies all of my tonal requirements of a dark rich tone, large bass response, and physical comfort, of course Taylor just had to do this to me:

I’m very curious to see how this compares to the AD27.  I love the larger body-short scale concept of these new grand symphonies on paper, but it will be interesting to see how these two compare in a back-to-back comparison.  Taylor describes the grand pacific as having a more rounded tone compared to most Taylor models, whereas these new GS bodies are said to be “symphonic”.  Whenever I do try these, I’ll have to report back, but for the sake of my wallet, I will resist ordering one of these until I actually try one.  Must resist....

No doubt.  It's only going to get "worse" though with the planning for releases they are dreaming up during lockdown 2020.

Man, it's a good looking guitar otherwise , but there's just not a single thing about that cutaway that appeals to me...
The world is like a book, and he who does not travel only reads a single page...

Visually I’m with you there - what I find intriguing About these is you don’t see many short scale big guitars like this everyday.
