Just got my first Taylor. The DDX model. Gloss Black, Maple back and sides with a Sitka Spruce top. Love it!

High Freddy,
I own a 2009 Taylor 214. It's the first guitar I've ever bought. About the same time as I bought my 214 I started learning to flatpick.
I know it's not a bluegrass guitar but for now it's what I have and I really enjoy playing it!

Howdy!
Proud owner of a 1996 Taylor 810. Great sounding guitar - well balanced, and records real nice. Can't cut through the noise in an open jam against all the Martin's, but on tape or mic'd right, it does a fine job!

Just added another Taylor to my collection. A Taylor GS Mini Mahogany top. Since they brought out the Mini in 2010 it has been hard to keep in stock. My local store never had one to try out. I wanted a "travel size" guitar for a while now but they all sounded too tinny for me but I finally bit the bullet and ordered one in. I couldn't believe how "full" it sounds for a smaller scale guitar. I am super happy with it.

"Thanks Mike. I have to prove to myself that I can play the material as written but once I've done that I start to allow myself some leeway to have fun and drop in my own bits. There's not too much space to do that in SK's version of…"
