Very responsive, sounds like heaven! Lots of bass! I love it! It plays like butter! Have a great day!!!! ****** Oh! And... guess the model ?! ;-) Very nice. I like Taylor guitars, they sound great and have great necks. However I'm more of a Martin kind of guy, but that should sound amazing. I'm a huge fan of Grand Auditoriums too. The Taylor Expressions System sound very nice, and works well on stage. That guitar will be a life time of sweet tons. Let us know in 30 years how you made out with it. My next guitar might be a Marin 00028, which one I have no idea yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Misha Posted July 15, 2018 Author Members Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hi Mikeo! I fell in love with the guitar. I remember that a couple of years ago I liked a Taylor a lot. I think it was a 414 but I'm not sure. I loved the clear sound and the neck. I couldn't buy it at the time. It was too expensive for my incomes. When I entered the music shop I had in mind a Yamaha FGX800c or FSX800c. I tried one (FGX) a year ago and it was very nice. And boomy. They didn't had either a FGX or FSX. I tried a small Taylor and a Simon and Patrick first. I told the guy that even though I didn't play very well I liked playing guitar. He told me I was too hard on myself, he was also a guitar teacher, he had seen a lot of guitarists and that I was better than I thought... I liked the small Taylor but not enough to buy it. The salesman than ask me if I wanted to try his favorite guitar in the shop and climbed the ladder to get the Taylor 324ce. Wow! Instant love! So easy to play, so responsive. Great bass! Great sound! Ebony fretboard! Just wow! When you play it you feel the wood resonate against your body! The feel is incredible. I think it's so responsive, it makes us play better. Each small variation in dynamic is picked up. It's much more easy to play rhythm than on any other guitar I have owned. Each note is also well defined and sounds good. I want to play, play, play! Hours at the office are painful when I'm separated from my Taylor! I couldn't leave it in the shop! It went home with me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Misha Posted July 15, 2018 Author Members Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hi Garthman! Thank's! I'm surprised myself to love so much an acoustic guitar with a mahogany top! It's very different from my Larrivee OM-03 which is actually at the luthier's shop to get its crack fixed. (Finally.) I have a small THR5A. I'm thinking about getting one a little bit bigger, stereo too. Maybe two 6" or two 8" speakers. Nothing too heavy. I would like to try the Vox VX50AG even if it's mono though because the Vox VX50BA sounds REALLY good... with an electric guitar!! (It sounds "creamy woody", very nice warm clean sound! I doscovered this by accident, thinking I was trying an electric guitar amp! (I think of it a bit has a bassman! Featherweight bassman.)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeepEnd Posted July 15, 2018 Members Share Posted July 15, 2018 Too late to guess what it is but Congratulations and Happy New Guitar Day. I love the look of a mahogany top. Play it in good health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Misha Posted July 16, 2018 Author Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 Thank’s DeepEnd! I came back home tonight, gave the cat his food then picked up my new mahogany guitar!! Can’t wait to be on vacations!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Etienne Rambert Posted July 16, 2018 Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 Cats & guitar open cases are a nightmare scenario.Cats & unstrung guitar sound holes are also a dangerous combination. Don't let either one happen to you Misha. Congrats on new guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Glenn F Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 Happy NGD, Misha! I have a 2016 Taylor 320 (dread) , and it has bass! How are things in Balconville? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Misha Posted July 18, 2018 Author Members Share Posted July 18, 2018 Hi GlennF! The cat made my guitar drop off the bed yesterday but slippers saved me from a heart attack! If Balconville, is Montreal, I only work there, I escaped from the big city a couple of years ago to move up North and I would not go back for a million bucks! Well, maybe I would think about it but... I prefer my small city! And there is parking! No need to stay on the balcony, I could play baseball in the yard! And all my family is around! I could get a used Fishman Loudbox Mini (60 watts) for a good price. I’m listening to youtube videos right now and reading reviews! I tried a Fender Acoustasonic 15 W. It’s kind of... meh! Or I set something wrong... Have a good evening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Misha Posted July 21, 2018 Author Members Share Posted July 21, 2018 Hi! Thank’s!! I play it everyday and for long hours! I showed it to my teacher this morning! He’s crazy about it! He’s impressed by the bass it’s got. I tried his D-18. It’s a nice guitar too, (but I prefer my Taylor.) ;-) When the teacher asks to borrow your guitar for his acoustic show, you know you found a good guitar! :-) He told me to never sell it! His Martin records very well, though (too soon to know for my Taylor!) I also finally bought a used but mint acoustic amp, a Fishman Loubox Mini, with the cover and a good cable. It’s like new. (I paid 250$ CAD. Brand new, it would have cost 552$ CAD with the taxes.) I’m pleased with it too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
