Hey, Brian. Welcome to the forum! Great to have another 714 lover here. You'll find you're in the company of a lot of 700-series fans... The forum has created quite a stir about the 700 series, as the owners are quite passionate about these guitars. I think it was once a "forgotten" series, but now people are picking them up in the stores and giving them a listen. They're really selling themselves though, once people hear the sound. The 700 series truly stands out among Taylor guitars in my not-so-humble opinion.
