Just received this one. Nice shape, plays well, action very good. Center seam separation but glued/cleated. A little musty odor but I'm working on it, not sure if it's the case (I think it is) or the guitar (don't think it is). Overall quite clean, nice EIR. Has DTAR Lock and Load electronics. Here's a few pics

Nice, Richard. Make sure the batteries are removed from the Load 'n Lock.
Lots of positive comments on Tacoma's so not surprised at your liking that D55. Of course, Richard finds the positive in all guitars and people.
Good advice especially since I likely won't be playing it plugged in all that much.

HNGD! I had a brief affair with a Tacoma D55, and it had magical tone, but was also my most valuable when I had to sell, so off it went. I did have trouble with all that bling on the fretboard and determined I do better with dots lol.
I've never really had a subpar D 55 and this one is a good one. I'm a happy kinda guy.

There's number of videos on YouTube comparing the D-55 with the D-28 and D-41. Even Music Villa gives respect to the D-55 when comparing it to the D-28. I know you'll enjoy your D-55, Richard!
