Default N.G.D. 1st Taylor

[IMG][/IMG][IMG]
[/IMG]I just purchased this guitar today. Its a Taylor GS8E. I traded an ibanez hollowbody, a martin dc16, and some cash. He had 2000.00 on it new in the shop. It plays nice and sounds great.

What a great way to start in the Taylor lineup. My GS7 (cedar/rosewood) is a wonderful guitar.. And a great bargain. I am sure that your GS8 is a great one too! Enjoy!
