1997 Taylor 914C Value?
Hi,
A friend of mine has a 914C that he is thinking of letting go and offered it to me. It has the Cindy inlay and is in nice condition. Close to mint. He is asking around $1400 for it. What do you think? I haven't bought a Taylor in a long time.

I'll take it in a heartbeat if I were you. I love the Cindy inlays and that's a heck of a price. YMMV.

That's a terrible deal. As a matter of fact, if you can give me a copy of your friend's phone number and e-mail address, I'm going to get in touch with him and tell him what an awful deal that is.
Killer deal. Go for it if there are no major issues. |

Thanks for the replies. I think I will take him up on it. It is pretty much mint. I don't remember seeing any blemishes on it.
I noticed that the cindy inlay is also on the headstock. But I have seen a couple of 1996 models that do not have that inlay on the headstock. Maybe 1997 was the first year?

That's roughly half what you could sell it for on the market!

Well I just picked it up. It will need a set up because he likes his action higher than I do. There is a little bit of fret wear and a couple of very tiny blemishes. I don't remember seeing them before but this time I looked very very close it sounds awesome even with old strings on it.
It is not mint. I would say its an 8.5 out of 10. Picked it up for less than the 1400 so I feel pretty good about it. I will post some pics when I get home.

The shadows are kinda weird when I took the pics. These were taken with a phone so not the best.. But here it is.
