NGD! 2014 Taylor 512 12-Fret
« on: November 08, 2014, 12:09:33 AM »
I picked up this wonderful barely used 2014 Taylor 512 12-fret this afternoon.  I'm loving the beautiful tone of the mahogany and western cedar top! The compact GC size is a pleasure to hold and play. What a wonderful addition and a great instrument.

I would have posted earlier but I've been playing for the past 3 hours.  ;D

Stunning. I have to admit I'm pretty partial to 512 cedar/hogs. Keep enjoying it.

That's a lovely-looking 512! Love that cedar top. Taylor hit a home run with the aesthetics here. Congratulations and enjoy your new musical partner!

Sweet guitar. I would love a 12-fret one of these days.

I bet that guitar is perfect for finger style.  Hope you enjoy for years to come.  One of my favorite things about the 5 series is the ebony headstock.  So classy.  I want to get some ebony tuners for my 514ce to match!

You got that right. I assure you the fireplace is a lot hotter than my playing.  ;D ;D
