My 1997 Taylor 555 12 string was always my favorite Taylor! But alas arthritis has me downsizing to a smaller more manageable 6 string guitar. No doubt the 555 will have to be sold. That will be a sad day indeed.

RE: Fave Taylor -- Taylor 712ce LTD Road Show
Just to add my two cents ... I've played many a Taylor and this limited model grabbed my attention above the rest of them. Would buy it myself, but I've sworn off slotted headstocks.
Taylor 712ce 12-Fret LTD Road Show Blackwood/Torrefied Sitka Spruce Link to one for sale (although it may be gone soon.) https://reverb.com/item/15094281-tay...d-sitka-spruce

The only Taylor that I thought might suit me better than my 914ce (2011) is a K24ce (I've played a couple of very nice ones). But I had the chance to play a K24 with V bracing the other day, and ... well, I'm sorry to say that I wouldn't want to own it any any price. After a few minutes I put it back on the hanger, very puzzled.
For the rest, there have been days when every Taylor I own has made me think, 'I could be happy with just this': 210e DLX; 810e; 214ce QM DLX; 914ce. They all have days of glory. But the 914ce, admittedly, has more.

I must declare, ManyMartinMan has utterly impeccable taste... which is to say, my favorite is also my GS5

914ce L7
ManyMatinMan
You ask "What is your favorite Taylor Guitar" Short answer: 2004 Fall Ltd. 914ce L7 Why? This is 1st year of a different top bracing from beginning in 1974, It is forward shifted X. Was made with Brazilian Rosewood and a fine grain Engelmann sound board. I had 2 of the 2004's Ltd's, and the second one came from a forum member from Hawaii Most superior sounding acoustic GA. I will never want to see it go. I have many other Taylor's I'd rate tops: KLSM DMSM Y2K 914c 912ce L7 ect., Ect! But this, This 914ce L7 Best all! P.s. Have many fine Martin's. They all have there place . Playing the y2k 914c exclusively right now. what a bargain it was!

T5z Pro. Since I usually lean toward electrics, preferably solid bodies, sitting down with the T5z was a very pleasant surprise. I ended up getting the Fender Acoustic 100 to go with it.

Haven't touched a Taylor guitar in a while but I remember their Taylor GC8 being the nicest I tried. All other Taylor guitars sounded too much like one another.

I'd like to find an above average older 614 GC cutaway. I am looking for a bright strummer for recording. I have only had one Taylor an all koa 2003 Fall LMT. 324-ce. It was really nice, especially the feel. I am intrigued about a 2018 Spruce / koa, v braced, luxury liner too. A trip to LA Guitar's would be fun.
