That Taylor looks just like mine. Mine's a 510 LTD, manufactured in 2002. What about yours?

[BanjoBen1]

@paulAVGuitarist This is called a Custom DN, and it was made in 2007, I think? It's a great guitar, though I'm mostly playing my McPherson now which is incredible!

And all this time I thought Jesco White was tap dancing to a song called "Wildwood Flair." Thanks for clearing that up.

HAHAHA!

Hey BanjoBen, I am a 65 year old Viet Nam Vet. Playing guitar since 1961. Love the Wildwood Flower Mother Maybell video. You rock. Keep up the good work, there are lots of us out there that you are reaching.

[BanjoBen1]

Thanks for your service! I can make these videos because people like you fought for me. Merry Christmas!

@hmmbooyow i reckon all them bad things i done came from the gas and the like

Hey Ben, thanks for the channel. I have been playing and singing for about 13 years or so, and have just recently become interested in flat pickin. Your videos are a HUGE help to a truck drivin' guitar picker.

Great!!!!

Well I just about have Banjo Ben's slow version down pat. I am 18 years old and have been playing since I was 11 or 12 and I am still playing my first guitar. I think a Taylor will be my next. Great sounding guitar. Love this music.

the bandjo part sucks

[ytv4goose]

What thickness strings do you use on your Taylor?

I have a Taylor and love it. So far I have only used the Elixir pohsphor Bronze Light .012-.053

I am considering going with a Medium gauge to see how the tone changes.
