Hey guys,
Once again, great dialogue. I'm a Taylor dealer and you're all pretty much right when you say that Taylor is no longer offering custom orders. JR is right as well, they still offer a TON of "options" that can fit about 90% of the public's desires. But for those like me......I wanted that little bit more that they just wouldn't do. It was minimal stuff, too. I'm having a luthier friend of mine do the final stuff that I want(when the guitar gets here) and it'll probably cost me less using him than getting it from Taylor anyway.
For a little history on my plight visit the topic string under "Taylor Guitars-General Discussion: Topic: 'Has anyone ordered direct from Taylor before? I have some ?'s...'". You can also see a picture of what my end product is going to look like.
The latest is that I called Taylor and they told me that the guitar is scheduled to ship June 27th!!!! These next few weeks will be tough on me............
Thanks again guys,
Mike
