I LOVE my TS 355c! [Archive] - The Acoustic Guitar Forum

Sorry, I know this is a cheap post. Sue me. :)

I've been playing my Taylorstock 355c every day since I got it, and the more I play it, the more I find to like. It has already opened up noticably, it plays like buttah, its intonation is as close to perfect as you can get, and the tone is deep and rich without being boomy or muddy (gotta love them maple jumbos!). The only reason not to like this guitar is if you don't like 12-strings.

BTW, I just installed a Rare Earth Blend, and I'm happy to report that it hasn't affected the acoustic tone in the least. Now I need a good acoustic amp, 'cause my little 15-watt Crate doesn't do it justice. :)

Chris- I, for one, am really glad to hear this!

I remember asking you what you were gonna pick out and you told me, on the first day, that you werent getting a guitar (to which I probably threw some immature tantrum along the lines of WHY NOTTTTT HOW COULD YOU NOTTTTT?) :)

I was quite pleased to see your hand up when Ed asked us who was getting a guitar, and I'm even happier for you now that you have a guitar that you truly love, and that will no doubt have plenty of sentimental value to you.

Congrats!

Wow Chris,
It is hard to imagine that guitar sounding better. Good for you.

Hey, I got an idea for an amp. Take your cd boom box and that adapter you they make for playing your cd walkman through your car cassette player. You can go to radio shack and get an adapter to plug in that thing into your guitar endpin jack. Put the other end in that boom box and you'll be all set!:lol: You could play through your car stereo too!:rolleyes:

Hi Chris, Taylors are special guitars and TaylorStock guitars are special Taylors!

Your 355 has gotta be one of the best TS values! I am really liking my TS 654CE, too!
