Taylor 514ce-n
Wasn't sure exactly where to start this thread so I did it here.
Got up this morning with every intention of pulling the trigger on a 214ce-n from Zzounds. As of last night, the guitar had been available. This morning it had sold. Unbelievable. So, not really knowing what to do I shuffled off to work. My coworker asks me, 'So did you buy your guitar?' I said 'Nah, somebody else bought it.' She goes, 'Well, no offense, but I think you just need to go ahead, bite the bullet, and get the guitar you really wanted.' So I said okay and put the order in on my break. As someone from these forums once told me, 'Buy expensive and cry once.' So it's out for delivery either Monday or Tuesday. I'll post pictures and soundclips in this thread as soon as I can. |

Awesome. Congrats to you! The 500 is a great series, and the expression system is fantastic.

Congrats on the new nylon string Taylor! Did you order it from Zzounds? I can't wait for the pics and your review. Happy waiting.

better options such as Guitar Rodeo and Wildwood Music, however due to my financial situation currently it is easier for me to use their monthly installment plan. To their credit the approval came through extraordinarily fast and the instrument shipped the same day. According to the tracking from FedEx it looks as if it should be out for delivery tomorrow sometime. I am about to burst from excitement! I'll keep you guys posted! |

Well, it finally arrived today. I really suck at taking pictures but here
are the images. I don't have any way of recording properly until my audio interface arrives but I'll post some sound samples up soon. |

For anyone who was interested in a sound clip I recorded of this
instrument through the computer, you can check out my test recording here: https://soundcloud.com/exile026/taylor-514ce-nylon-test |

Thanks for the pics and the sound clip. Nice playing! What kind of strings are you / will you be using?

Thanks Dru. I'm new to recording so all of my own compositions really need
to be polished for performance as do my covers like this one! I'm not sure since I lack a lot of experience with nylon strings. I was considering trying out some D'addario EXPs Extra-Hard Tension. (EDIT: I'm currently using the strings that came with it. When I get cash I'll change them out.) Do you have suggestions? |

I was hoping you could give me a long range opinion of how your 514ce-n has held up and if the sound has ripened any at all over the past 2 or 3 years? I hope you are still enjoying your 514ce-n! Thanks |
