Here is my NGD post, 2 days late, because I’m having a hard time prying my hands off this guitar and I can’t stop staring at its beauty.
About the GuitarThis is a K24ce Wildwood Custom Build. As upgrades, it has Adirondack CV Bracing and AA Koa top, back and sides. I fell in love with this guitar the minute I saw it. I love what Mother Nature did with these woods, with the sapwood, striping, curliness (and even quilting of sorts), and colors. These features run both horizontally and vertically, making it a stunning example of Taylor Art. The pictures don't do it justice. But, I did my best.
Sound
The sound out of this guitar is amazing. It has a well-balanced tone, from the bass through the trebles. I’m mostly a finger style player and this thing just sings, with its nice clear note separation. Then, if I want it to really “bark”, it’s very responsive and loud. My husband says “that thing really booms”. He can’t stop commenting on how good it sounds. I think the Adirondack bracing really adds to the sound of this guitar.
Wildwood GuitarsThis was my first guitar purchase from Wildwood Guitars (Louisville, CO). I called them several times and ended up speaking with Steve, Troy, Bruce, and Lance. They were all very helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. I paid the extra shipping cost to get 2 Day Air, and the guitar made it from the store to my home in Michigan in less than 24 hours! What a nice surprise. I'd definitely recommend Wildwood Guitars.
Now, for the pictures:
