I just picked up a Taylor 710ce. Awesome. BTW, aren't most 700 series are Indian Rosewood back & sides, compared to your mentioning of Koa ? I have a 90s vintage Rivera Sedona amp that rules on acoustics IMO. The DN3 I have sounds somewhat"darker" I think & also amazing. 600 series in Maple OMG !!
@CarbonSource Congratulations on your new guitar! Yes, the 700 series is typically Indian Rosewood. This one was a limited edition 700 series guitar, though, thus the Koa wood.
You have a fan :) I love the stuff and how you play x I was thinking Martin but am leaning towards Taylor now. I'm trading my Gibson Les Paul in to go acoustic.
@Dravenstars Thank you! Both Martin and Taylor make great guitars. Play everything you can in your price range and then get the guitar that you don't want to put down once you play it.....the one that "speaks" to you. You can't go wrong when you pick a guitar out that way.
What's the difference between the 714 and 814 by sound or which edition do you(in your opinion) think sounds the best? By the way do you work for Guitar Center?
@ZeroNitron Both the 714ce and 814ce sound great. The 714ce has a cedar top and has forward shifted braces. The 814ce has a sitka spruce top and sitka CV bracing with relief routs. Personally, I prefer the 814ce.....especially since Taylor began putting the CV bracing in it.
And, no, I don't work for Guitar Center. I work for Portland Music Co.
@ChefsOffice I think part of your model is missing.....which one are you looking at? Is it a 710CE? Regardless of model, however, if you love the guitar then get it. Taylors are great guitars.
@lawnmonkey7 This one sold, but we do stock the standard 714CE that sells for $2799.00. We also have a few very cool 2011 Spring Ltd. Taylors in stock also.
Maybe Eric Clap. is a very nice man but his fans, they are mostly jerks and wannabees and they never learn to play themselvs, That is why I like the rolling stones better, and now I like Carrie too. they are the cool guys
a martin and a taylor are the number 1 guitars..sorry for the gibson i dont like the sound .....i got a taylor and it was a big choice between the taylor and the martin !
great justification, so if the guitar is hard to play its a MANS guitar right? this guitar is one of the best sounding guitars ive ever played, so it is your opinion that it has no soul. if you want to talk shit, please have some hard evidence to back it up.
because its handmade in the USA and this guitar is make out of Koa which is a projected wood. it only grows in hawaii, and the only trees suitable for making guitars is above 5000 feet. only a few trees are aloud to be harvested per year and theres only about 400 or so of these guitars ever made.
Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad I was able to help make things easier. I know how stressful these decisions can be. I'm sure it helps that I love what I do! Happy playing!
Madam or anyone.. What is that fab tune your playing? Sounds blue grass!

Hey, what nice sound this guitar makes !!
The sound is kind of muscular, I think.
It is pretty different from the sound that Martin D-28, which I have, makes.
It has the beauty of its own.
How much is it ?
