"Just ordered a set of ebony tuner buttons from StewMac for my GA3 ... hope they fit! Others who had "reviewed" the buttons on the site said they'd used them on Taylor tuners. "

I just thought I'd let people know there is now a Taylor Owners Group available. I was kind of surprised there wasn't one when I looked, so I created it and it was approved last week when I was out…Continue

Phillip L Picton commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Hi Paul,
I have a Taylor 710ce that I bought in 2004. I also have a Martin D15 and in 2008 I found a great deal on a new Martin D41 Special. It took a few days to convince my wife how good the deal was, but I finally did, and it has…"
FloridaGull commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Ah - then the key is to find a nice, inexpensive one... ;-)"
Paul Stoddard commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Hello everyone
How many of you also own a Martin? I love my Taylor 814ce, but two weeks ago I was in a music store and picked up the best acoustic they had in stock, which just happened to be a Martin D28, and I was blown away. The bass…"
Mark commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Ok, first of all, Thank You all for your responses! I knew this was the place to come with my query! I'll be looking for that issue of Wood&Steel as soon as I'm done writing this.
I wish I had…"
Paul Stoddard commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Hi Mark
First, I would agree that you would find a road show helpful. They explain exactly what you are asking, and you will get a chance during the break, or after the show, to speak to the Taylor guys and they are very good at answering…"
Tom commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Mark: Look for the 2013 Winter Wood and Steel magazine from Taylor (vol. 74) It has a great bunch of articles about Finding your guitar. Everything from shape, sound, wood, playing style plus a description of all the numbers and styles.…"
Tom commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"100% agree. The Winter 2013 Wood and Steel magazine vol. 74 has a great article in finding the guitar for you. From styles to woods to sounds to shapes to, well just about everything. However nothing passes for playing it hands on.…"
Michael McBride commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Hi Mark,
Welcome (almost) to the world of Taylor guitars. There is no "better" when it comes to Taylor guitars. There's really only the quality of their sound that sets them apart from on another. Jud is correct about the build…"
Jud Hair commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Taylor's "Wood & Steel" Magazine is available online and you get a hard copy sent to your free when you buy a Taylor, or you can usually pick up a free copy at most Taylor dealerships."
Tom commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"I have a Taylor magazine that gives description of all the different meanings of the numbers. Give me a bit and I can write them all out.
As for the guy wondering on the delivery date. My dad just bought a new limited addition Taylor and it took I…"
Jud Hair commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Mark ... great advice from Mike to attend a Taylor Road Show. The event provides a terrific education for comparing and contrasting both tone wood and body style.
One thing I love about Taylors is that they are remarkably consistent in…"
Mike commented on Jim Handsfield's group Taylor Owners"Hi Mark. It can get kind of confusing. I bought a DN3 and love it. Now it's called a 310. Not sure why. Check Taylor's website and see if there is a road show event near you. If there is, I hear they are great at answering all your…"
