Hey guys, I’m just trying to make some more posts on here so I can eventually start posting some guitars for sale. I’m still trying to navigate my way through. I think I may have already made this post on the electric site lol anyhow, has anyone ever tried a Taylor 322 e 12 fret I picked up a 2018 a couple of days ago I know the newer models have got the new V bracing I am really impressed with the sound of this guitar. I have a Martin D 17 M 2002 I have a 2016 Gibson songwriter DLX studio Had a Martin D 18 have a tack & a Taylor mini Koa, this 322e Taylor sounds amazing mahogany top and solid wood back and sides. Tasmanian black wood. but wow very impressive sounding guitar for the size great bill quality. Let me know if you’ve tried one of the newer ones in comparison to the older model. I think the only difference in them is the bracing? Thanks hope you’re having a great day.[emoji41]

Ok cool I was really surprised and impressed with the tone from that guitar. I know it’s a 2018 and the new ones are the V bracing but I don’t know how big of a difference that would be besides I got a really good deal on this guitar. Thanks for your input. I appreciate it.

Same Taylor’s again but with fresh strings !
Taylor 510 (dread) Engelmann/Mahogany with Martin MSP 0,0125 strings
Taylor 514ce (Grand Auditorium) Cedar/Mahogany with Martin MFX740 0,012 strings.
The 514 sounded quite the same as with the eight months old peeling Elixir…
But the 510 came back alive from the dead thirteen months old (outch !) Dr Dragon Skin strings and quite clearly beats the 514 ! :)
Finally, I was right with that compromise, say intermediate string gauge (0,0125) since they feel more comfortable. :)

Late add on : oops ! Wrong thread… 😳
