For the Guitar Fans

This is over the top beautiful. Since it is basically an upscale Presentation model with the amp, I would bet the price is in the Fender Crossroads set price range. $30K

[ClassicGMJunkie]

but its like an exotic car.... ya cant trust the general population around it usually, before it gets bitched up.

check out morgan guitars as well, really nice builds. custom made.

Well, I am almost embarrassed to admit, but I have 4 Taylor's (an Solid Boby C2 electric and 3 Acoustic), 2 Fenders (Tele and Strat), 2 Ibanezs (LP copy and a hollow body), 2 Lunas (Acoustic), a G&L (Strat copy), A Godin (acoustic) and a Inbaez Mandolin.

I really need to stop buying, but there is a Gibson ES-335 and a Fat Strat in my future. I just need to quit spending money on these RC's, they really cut into my toy budget.

I got to play a Presentation at a road show. And even with my me gar skills. there is nothing smoother and sweeter and that is what the Builder's Reserve is based off of, but I also don't see a Presentation in my future at $5999 discounted from $7999. Hard enough to chock down the 3199 for the ES-335.

man you sure know sometimes where the extra$$ went when you play a top shelf or customshop guitar..and its not that much might be lacking in a less expensive guitar its just you can feel/hear a difference..maybee just higher grade tonewoods..i,ve looked at some of the lower priced taylors but they have a wierd joint at the headstock, sounded real nice though
guitars are addicting for sure..i dont think you can have too many..lol

I have a couple MIM Fenders and they sound great. I am building a Fat Strat based on a MIM body and neck and Lace Alumitone Pups and I fully believe that they sound as good as an American Special and depending on what your playing, as good as a MIA.

But you can for sure hear and feel the difference in a top of the shelf or custom acoustic. Personally I love Taylors, some people are the same way with Martins. I also am crazy about my Godin Acoustic Archtop and that is a lower level guitar, $600 range. My wife just bought a Luna Gypsy Spalt, on sale at GC for $189 and it sounds nice. A bit high in the action, but since I play more elctrics, I am used to fast actions and lighter strings.

I had forgotten this thread was out here. Here is some of what I am playing now.


The far left acoustic is a Taylor 324ce BE, next to it is my old Taylor GS-Mini

Not yet.

[neillarson]

I have thought about one. I just gave 5 guitars and an amp to a grand nephew. One of those was a red Fende American Performer so a red Lego would match perfect.
