I have never been compelled to own a Taylor guitar, my ears have always preferred what my hands could do on other guitars. I am recovering strength and range of motion in my left hand (injury, another thread) and have eased the transition back to guitar playing by tuning my steel stringed guitars down 1/2 step and using a capo. I also found my wife's old Giannini classical guitar in the closet (are those strings really 30 years old?!)
So, let me end the preamble and say that I came home from the local brick and mortar with a little Taylor nylon string guitar this week. And I think it's a dandy thing. Easy on the fingers, nice scale length and... hey, I think it sounds good too. The nut width and radiused fingerboard make the transition from playing steel stringed guitars pretty easy. Nice product at a reasonable price, I say.
Note to LTG - no Guilds were harmed or traded in this transaction. :wink:
