Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

Made with the finest and rarest of wood-types, this is a truly Gorgeous Brazilian Rosewood and Sitka Spruce instrument.  The gorgeous binding is tasteful, but with a clear nod to mesmerizing and beautiful artisan-ship.    

The value proposition on this is absolutely outstanding - a Taylor made, RARE, Brazilian Rosewood + Sitka Sprice combination, makes this an absolute no-brainer for the no-compromise collector looking to add a very special Taylor, or to the aficionado who knows that there is simply no substitute for Brazilian.  

The fretwork is now world-class, tip-top proving this is not only a picturesque beauty, but one that any professional musician of the highest caliber will appreciate - not your "every man's Taylor" to be sure, this one is special.  

The intent of the work performed, and now seeing in its completion has made this as beautiful as the picture (don't fully) do it justice, and also has master-built playability one would expect from a world class instrument, setup in the hands of one of the most precise luthiers.  

SP Luthier Notes: A small top crack (natural grain separation) was expertly and permanently repaired to stabilize it for the lifetime of the instrument, without compromising the beauty of this extraordinary instrument, and ensuring there was also no compromise to the tonal capabilities of this unqiue beauty.

Performed Light Cosmetic Cleanup Work, and Completed Partial Refret: Playability is now silky smooth, buzz free up and down the fret board, probably as good or better than the day it was born.
