Taylor 30th Ann. Models

Unread post by HendrixWS » Sat Mar 13, 2004 7:16 pm

OMG these are beautiful the only down side is that they only come in GC size. I think I'm gonna get one maybe. They're like 3k a piece. I'm either gonna get the EI Rosewood one or the Koa one if I do end up getting one. I have the money from saving up for like a year and a half. I want to pick a guitar but I'm super picky right now. I really like the slotted head and the inlay.

no tonal difference. its strange because theyre steel stringed guitars with a headstock usually used for nylon strings. they must suck to restring though.

they do look very nice, but i like normal headstocks better.

Actually they're not a bitch to restring. I love the slotted head it has a vintage look to it. My friend has a Vintage D-28S with the slotted head. Its not much different thatn normally restringing a normal peg headstock guitar.

But they ARE short-scale guitars, so they most definitely will have tonal differences.

I was going to say, there has to be a tonal difference in these guitars. But they are very attractive :D
