Default Taylor BTO

If you were to commission a Taylor BTO, what US dealers do you recommend getting quotes from?

Tobias Music in Downer's Grove, IL are super awesome guys to work with. I almost bought a 514 from them. They also have some killer ones in stock.

My fav is a Ebony 14 series:https://www.tobiasmusic.com/listing/...value/33085508

Have a few custom Grand Pacifics too!

However, when you get into custom Taylor pricing, that opens up a whole world of that boutique, hand-built, and voiced guitars like Collings, Bourgois, Furch, Northwood, etc.

I'm in Canada so I got my BTO from Long & McQaude in Canada. In the US I'd reach out to Ted at LA Guitar Sales. He used to be a frequent poster here but I haven't seen him lately.

If you order a Taylor BTO, make sure they ship it carefully.
