    I originally wanted this guitar because both Martin and Taylor diehards didn't like it , but after playing it , hearing it , and analyzing the look of it , it is the best thing I've ever done.

    American Dream is the name of the shop that Bob Taylor first started building guitars. Seven is the number that indicates the body style (grand pacific). If the middle number is a one then it’s a spruce top. If the middle number is two it’s a hard wood top, usually mahogany but in this case it’s maple.

    Those D'Addario NB may be dry but also balance the bass. The Grand Pacific was designed to sound like old guitar recordings. The nickel-bronze strings age gracefully and are nice to sing with.

    Great work as usual. Informative without being too inside baseball/guitar geeky. Relaxed and smart. Beautiful playing Quinton. During the information session I like how you keep it simple so that any player can take in the sound and the information you give without being intimidated. Nice variety of styles to share during the "performance" section at the end.

      Thanks so much John - coming from a player of your caliber, those kind words mean a lot! I believe the first time I saw you play, was a very humbling experience when you started off a KJ Phelps show down here in Bozeman. Hope all is well and your 2022 is off to a great start!

      @@quintonking9960 Wow what a great memory! I opened a number of shows for Kelly and got to know him quite well though I sadly confess I have not been in touch with him for the last decade. I vividly remember that night you’re speaking of at Gallatin Gateway. I felt really good about my performance, like, that’s pretty much as good as I can play I think. And then Kelly comes out and just fucking kills it. Even then I knew him pretty well, but I just sat there slack-jawed thinking this must be what it was like hearing Hendrix. It wasn’t even particular lines or solos or anything like that. It was sounds and colors and textures in between the notes. Thank you for reminding me of that wonderful evening. Somehow Kelly and I went off in a car full of four beautiful women to get drinks somewhere lol. I kept pleading “Kelly, I can’t be out late. I’m promoting your show in Missoula tomorrow.“ To which Kelly replied “I don’t know man, looks like it’s going to be an all nighter John!” 😂

    I had asked them, some time ago, why not a maple back and sides GP ? They had no plans to do so. I think they should offer a (baked GP)Sitka top as an option. Taylor indeed has surpassed Tide detergent for a shelf space model.

    I will add that Daddario NB strings need to be well played in for a couple of days before they settle in and sound like they're supposed to. After that, they hold a good tone for a long time.

    It's a genuinely beautiful guitar, I would love to play one and I think the brightness and "dryness" would grow on me, but Taylor just don't move me the way that Martin guitars do.

  • @tcjensen1

    I feel the same about Taylors. No complaints, objectively great, but never really move me like Martins do.

  • @jt3483
    @jt3483 2 роки тому +7

    This was interesting. The first time I've heard someone say that they wouldn't compare a Taylor against a Martin acoustically. But that Taylor's really come into their own when plugged in.
    That actually makes a lot of sense to me. I can see why my friends that are pro recording/touring musicians would prefer a Taylor and why I, playing unplugged only, prefer the Martin sound.

    When I listen to others reviewing this or a few other guitars compared to what I hear from you,
    Not sure if it’s the mic you use or the playing style of your hands, it just doesn’t sound ( to me) what I would say , wow that’s going to sell me on the sound .
    I heard you play a 314 LTD torrid top, and the same thing.

    I heard the Taylor mahogany top version 27e, here- ua-cam.com/video/NBfRvl8G0GM/v-deo.html
    and to my ears the mahogany top version is way much better than this thin sounding maple top 27e. Maybe the mic recording helped the mahogany youtube recording stand out to be much better?

    As everyone knows Maple is too dense for a top and won't produce a good tone...as you hear here, it is muted, uninspiring and somewhat dead sounding...I'm sure it will be overcome it's acoustic shortcomings when you plug it in....but I personally need a acoustic that sounds good acoustically...Also you surely know what stings they put on it cause you read it when Andy said it. :))

    • @uvp5000
      @uvp5000 2 роки тому +2

      I thought so as well. I have a subwoofer with the bass overly loud and it still sounded thin. I guess I am biased towards an especially resonant soundboard that conveys bass especially well.

  • @markrobinson891
    @markrobinson891 2 роки тому +2

    Describing sound is almost like describing the taste of salt…Who knows what “dry” means? We can relate to “warm.” To me “tinny” was my first response. Also, Taylor must have a department for adding confusing numbers to all their models. I wondered what happened to the long term relationship with Elixir strings on their guitars?

    • @samsaxe-taller7145

      2. I don't understand "warm" definition but I understand "dry".
