John and Davwir,
Thank you for the kind words, yes Taylor used a nice piece on this one. In case you are interested, I got it back then from Jim at Guitar Rodeo. Jim usually had a rather large selection to choose from, and great prices to match. I did tell Jim that if at all possible i didn't want sapwood on the cocobolo, and i wanted quartersawn sides...he was kind enough to make sure I got a piece like that.
There are some days this coco set reminds me of brazillian. It is actually a tad darker in real life as compared to the photos

The truss rod cover was from Capt Bill, we all know he does great work!
Agreed that the 08' Fall Ltds are nice. They were especially great to look forward too as they were the first guitars to feature the adirondack bracing too.
Blessings,
zeke
