Default Any Pictures of 914/916CE Florentine cutaway

as I have just ordered one special and hope it will come in as great sounding as the other 900 series I have played. I know I saw where one or two of you owned this model guitar with the Florentine cutaway, just hope you will post or PM me some pictures to hold me over till my guitar gets here around February. Thanks guys....

Default Dude, no offense, but did that a long time

a go and did not find any results of this guitar. This is a Taylor forum, so please let Taylor owners respond that have what I ask pictures for again with absolutely no offense intended. I am sure there are some here who own that guitar and I would prefer they post their pictures especially if they are of the late models like a 2010/2011. No worries, but you post does not address my thread with all due respect. But thank you....

Default Found a mate from downunder

that has exactly what I am looking for, the 2011 916CE, with the Florentine cutaway? Sent him a PM request for some pictures to blow up and stare at on the wall till my 916CE with the same cutaway comes. I can not wait.

This isn't a Taylor forum. This is an "acoustic guitar forum".

If you take a look at recent threads, you will notice that this place will no longer host Taylor specific threads in a separate section on the forum by year end.

Default Thank you to those who actually where kind and tried to

help me and especially MichaelW for posting his great picture of exactly what I am waiting on. For the person who reminded me that this is not a Taylor very rudely, well you are the kind of person that gives these forums a bad name. Shame on you and you will be blocked from further posting to my threads. There are enough negative people in the world without having to put up with it on a forum about the joy of guitars and playing them. Thank you again to those who where kind and really offered to help.

I am not a huge fan of cutaways on acoustic guitars......UNLESS it's a florentine! Then I am a Hugemongous fan of them!!! I think the florentine cutaway just really makes a guitar look amazing!! The R. Taylor above and the 914ce are both beautiful guitars!!! I was looking at a 816ce fall limited with the florentine cutaway but went with a T5-C1 instead and there are some days when I wish I had bought the 816ce.

Default Comments on cut aways

I never really thought I would be either coming from playing dread naughts all my life and never thought I would buy Taylor as I am old school it has to be glued and jointed to really sound good and be strong. Thank goodness I got beyond that and played some Taylor's and learned more about them. I also think Taylor has come a long way since they first arrived on the scene. If I where to order a guitar made like the 916CE with Florentine cut away and three piece back from a luthier, it would easily cost over 1000.00. I was going to order a Jim Olsen guitar back about 10-12 years ago and it was very similar to the Guitar James Taylor plays today. Well it was going to be 3900.00 back then and a 3 to 4 month wait. Now they start at 12500.00. I know and see how Taylor does it and I think they are smart in using laser and computer aided machinery in doing a lot of the tedious cutting and etching on their guitars and it is much quicker and more accurate than doing it all by hand unless you pay a truck load to do it by hand and wait a long time. I use the entire neck as well and after going to a Taylor Road show and find your fit a couple of weeks ago. I found my shape and size guitar. I wanted the 916 GS body because I found it to be fuller sounding and with more base like I have become accustom to playing full body guitars. Thanks for sharing you opinions and views.
