The options you picked out were perfect .  Beautiful guitar.

Oh my, that's a lovely guitar!

On the 12-fret, I know exactly what you mean!  I played one at a Road Show and since that time was sectretly plotting a way to get one ...the 12-fret Taylors have that way about them; just alluring!  (which fortunately for me I was able to fulfill that itch when a certain RT-2 came across my path).  And how you spec'd this guit is perfect: just so elegant.  The hues are beautiful and the edgebursting is gorgeous.  Kudos man ...enjoy!!

Wow -- what a beautiful guitar. And it would seem the sounds are up to par with the looks. Congrats!

OK, I give up.  Being rather new to these forums I haven't figured out all these acronyms yet.  I saw "NGD" on the UMGF this morning and have been trying all day to figure it out with no luck.  Then tonight I'm on this forum and "NGD" pops up again, so at least I know it's not pertaining to a particular manufacturer.

Can someone tell me what "NGD" means?  I was thinking that BTO was Bachman Turner Overdrive, but then realized that it was Build To Order.

Thanks!  Oh, and enjoy that beautiful guitar.  I've never had a mahogany one, but that's next on my list.

OK, I give up. 

Just another NGD thread on UTGF about a BTO GC from GR that temporaily eases GAS. Includes AB  to M GA LTD and reference to old L09. Also discusses vintage L-O and L-OO tone. BTO has an NT neck but no CVR because it's a 12 fret. Slothead, so no 510's. No ES.

Etc.

I've built a few BTO's with Ebony binding and rosettes (and bound soundholes!), and it's probably my favorite look...
No one has ever been on their death-bed wishing they'd been more practical...
