« on: March 10, 2012, 11:02:06 PM »
Hi everyone, I had posted this ~NGD~ on the other forums since I had NO idea this 'Taylor' forum existed.
It's good to know this forum exists, it feels like home!
Well, here you go:

Sinker Red Wood top
Macassar Ebony back and sides
Ebony binding/rosette

Jescar alloy frets

The guitar sounds amazing, can't stop playing it ( or smelling it ;) )

Thanks Jim!

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the welcome!
Yes, those are the bone pins.
I had this guitar custom built to my specs.  It was risky, but it was totally worth it.. I couldn't be happier with my new guitar.
Very, very, very nice. Thanks for sharing indeed.   Bill


Thanks Bill!

The RT looks wonderful, wish I could hear it!

That's a fantastic looking guitar, and I'm sure it sings, too!
