hThis is one beautiful Taylor. It looks, sounds, and plays just great. No dings or marks whatsoever. I bought this GA4 a few months ago to complement my 324, but find that I just don't put the 324 down. Holiday finances for a retiree being what they are, I could use the $$$. I'm currently having difficulties hooking up and downloading from Photobucket, but I'll be glad to send pictures although here are some on my Craigslist ad http://charlottesville.craigslist.org/msg/4220829686.html (http://charlottesville.craigslist.org/msg/4220829686.html) Sale price of $975 will include USPS shipping and Paypal. Only modification is a clear pickguard. Contact me at bmwgser@aol.com if interested....
This is a one year old Taylor GA4 (now known as a 414) guitar that is in as-new condition. It includes the original Taylor hardshell case that is in equally very good condition. It does not include electronics, but that is something that a luthier can install if needed. It has the typical outstanding Taylor tone, quality, and playability, and no scratches, dings, etc. Over a decade ago, Taylor introduced the guitar world to a sustainable tonewood known as ovangkol. An African relative of rosewood, it's a great sounding wood that shares many of rosewood's tonal properties, with a slightly fuller midrange and a top end that's not quite as bright as maple. Being lesser known than rosewood, ovangkol has been a sleeper hit over the years, asserting itself as an instant contender among unsuspecting players who test-drive a variety of Taylor models. Works well for players who perhaps don't have predefined tonal preferences, who may be generalists in their style of play, and who are looking for a well-rounded, all-purpose solid wood guitar. It works well with different body shapes. NO TRADES
