the 2011 Fall Limited Koa (GA).  It sounds as great as it looks


Congrats on the awesome guitar.

I agree with you as I have just acquired one too. They do sound as good as they look... easily the best looking, best sounding, and best value of all the guitars I have owned or played.

Pics???   ;D

Even though you have the same model, I'm addicted to seeing the grain of these beautiful tone woods.

The koa has the surreal 3d effect that almost seems like flaming lava flow

Man-o-man. StevieD and Fire those are some fine Koa guits.

Spend some quality time with them. They certainly deserve it.

Beautiful, Fire!  The edgeburst on these fall Limiteds is something else.  Did you buy yours recently?  I had a heckuva time finding one - a friend has one that he kindly let me borrow, and I had to have one- but finding it wasn't easy.

I bought mine over two weeks ago. Was planning to get a similarly-priced K24ce as I have demo'd one at a recent Find Your Fit event and was quite pleased with it. I lucked out and found a Fall Limited 12-Fret instead. With the Gotoh 510 tuners, edgburst, 12-fret shortscale, and AA-grade Koa, this is a killer of a deal as most limiteds are.

The tone is just phenomenal.  Enjoy yours.... and unlike your friend, no one is ever borrowing this  ;D

The Taylor vendor sent a complimentary rag with the vendor's logo stamped on it. Not sure if it was for polishing or drool-wiping.  :)
