[invguy921]

2015 514ce-FM LTD Spruce/Mahogany


This is a wonderful guitar in MINT condition. I bought it here a very short time ago here on AGF and money issues force me to sell it. I love the guitar. I love the inlays. I love the tone. Plays great. Can't find a mark on it anywhere. Just can't keep it right now

From Taylor:

Rare flamed mahogany adds a striking visual shimmer to the back and sides of this limited edition Taylor Grand Auditorium. The Sitka spruce top boasts Adirondack spruce CV bracing, which boosts the guitar’s volume and overall fullness without sacrificing clarity. Together with mahogany’s clear, warm and fundamentally strong sonic character, players can expect a dynamic tone profile that responds well to nearly any playing style. Premium aesthetic strokes include a sharp Florentine cutaway and a fresh appointment package featuring a rosewood/mother-of-pearl Capstone fretboard inlay, rosewood/mother-of-pearl rosette, rosewood binding with curly maple top edge trim, a rosewood back strip, Gotoh Gold tuners, along with an all-gloss body and Taylor’s Expression System® 2 electronics. The guitar features a limited edition label and ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.

Thank you Paul and Doug. I've had a few inquiries but not what I expected on this guitar. I bought this one here on the forum from a well respected member and fellow "guitar lover" and new design "Taylor lover". These new Taylor designs internally and externally are really nice...they look nice and play nice...someone will LOVE this guitar . As I sell my "stash", I'm totally fine continuing to own this one if it comes down to that.

I just realized that my photos don't show some of the figuring in the back of this one. I guess my lighting was just not the best the day I took these pictures. I'll take some others and let more of the beauty of this back shine through. Until then, here's one of it showing how clean it is:

Gorgeous guitar!!! Great price too. Mike is wonderful to work with - can't go wrong here...

I remember when these came out, I didn't look hard at them, for some reason the advertisements taylor had just didn't grab my attention,

BUT!

these pictures are georgeous and that guitar is stunning. I never knew these looked so good. The cutaway is perfect on that. I really like the rosette also.

If I had not just put an order in yesterday with John at Shoreline for a 712 12 fret with a cut, I'd be on this immediately.

Top shelf seller here folks, stunning, absolutely stunning guitar!

I ment to post yesterday. The 514ce -Ltd-FM is a 2015 ! Fall Ltd.
Wonderful Taylor!

Agree 100%. Those inlays and cutaway make this a beautiful guitar. Someone is going to get a special instrument.

Very nice guitar. I own the quilted Sapele version and it is not only sonically stunning but aesthetically amazing. Andy did an amazing job on the appointments.

Someone will be really happy with this one. IMHO worth far more than the original asking price and I do not believe these types of appointments will be available from Taylor again at this price point barring a big downturn in the economy.

Thank you. I agree. I've only seen these appointments on these very special guitars, and I have always been drawn to them. They are very cool and outside the "traditional Taylor box".

If someone doesn't buy this one, I'll be totally happy to keep it for a long long time. I had the guitar at my office and brought it home last night. Someone had asked about how the guitar does in alternate tunings, and I think it is fantastic. Frankly I like it best in standard tuning, but that is just me. I guess maybe I don't play enough in alternate tunings for it to matter to me anyway.

It is available now. If I don't sell it soon, off the market it goes. So, speak now...
