That time of year when the @TaylorGuitars Wood & Steel annual guitar guide comes in the mail and you spend all weekend reading it #guitarlust

I am right there wityh you JimC. My pick so far is the 912CE on page 19. I have fallen in love with the grand concert size because of the ease of fingure picking. the sunburst top is unbelievably beautiful!

I also think the BTO on page 61 is quite exceptional! The enlays of running horses is unique and the koa is also on my list of what I am hoping for someday. Already been looking at a K22CE (all koa grand concert) but this BTO is outstanding.

I will keep dreaming....

I'm a total convert to Grand Concert-sized guitars. Since 99 percent of my playing is done sitting on a couch, the GC size fits perfectly and, if you get the right one, sounds outstanding. I've got a sinker redwood over cocobolo 12-fret GC that is just outstanding. A dream guitar for me.

Oh man, the sinker redwood is Gorgeous and the cocobolo is awesome too. I helped a friend find a limited edition with Cocobolo and it broke my heart to see the guitar get away from me. Oh well, at least I know where it's at and have first chance of buying ot if he decides to let it go sometime...

Enjoy your sweet guitar!

Hi Bart,

I Have similar dreams. I think I would go for the grand concert size and I am lusting for koa. My first guitar was grand auditorium size and later I bought the GSmini. I like the smaller size and find myself picking up the mini more often. If I haven't played in a while, I notice the medium guage strings that the mini requires, so I sometimes think about getting a nylon string guitar one of these years.

Thanks, Dennis! That looks like a good deal. I hadn't thought about buying a used guitar, but that may be a very cost-effective way to go. I will think about it. If I buy it, what's your finder's fee?

Very pretty! I will not try to take it from you though. My hope is to find an "all KOA" (including the top) with a cut-away grand concert. This one looks like a screaming deal tho. Good luck!!!

My finder's fee is that you play something for me at guitar camp.
