Peace
914ce, that's the one I want to get, and play at the store about once a week.....you a lucky man my friend.
Haha, i lusted over it for about 2 months then finally had to buy it...i felt guilty!
i have a 420 which is a full dread with pau ferro (like rosewood) back and sides. i love it, i got it for 700 off of ebay and don't regret it one bit. i'm on the lookout for a 414 rosewood right now.

I have a 1998 Taylor 514ce. I like the sound of the cedar top... it's a little more mellow than spruce. The guitar is a great all around guitar. The only thing I would change about Taylor's is the shape of the neck. The 1 3/4" nut width took some getting used to (I was used to 1 11/16"). Now, I like the 1 3/4", but the neck is a little thin.. front to back. I have an old Takamine that has a thicker neck... it just feels better in my hand. My next purchase will probably be a Martin dred... maybe like an HD-28.
BigSpeen, you got rid of the 310? Ah, man... I thought that was gonna' be your guitar for life. Well, you can always pick up another Taylor or a Martin later.
Me too! Everything about it is kick ass! I am unworthy of such a fine instument. I hope Ill grow into it like a pair of pants from sasquach. It mike take a while though, sasquach is pretty big...... I figured I might not have money again for a long while so I might as well take advanage of it while I could.
and i know. great investment...i took it over the 914 at the store. just loved the sound. even if doesn't have fancy inlay, i love the simpler look, anyway. why i took the pickguard off.
anxiously awaiting my 2004 custom 614ce. yup I sold the cocobolo 814ce to get this bad boy. it kinda sucks not having a Taylor for a while, I like my Takamine, but its no Taylor!
