But thanks for the offer. |

Location: SoCal | Anybody here realize how silly this thread is? Tup posts a joke (at least I assume it's a joke) and it takes off from there. For everybody here who loves Taylors, nobody is saying they are bad guitars (some jerk owners, but that's another thread). Most of us are just saying that they are not our cup of tea and the reasons why.
It's kinda stupid to keep repeating the same things over and over again.
I'm going to go out and do some work (I know, the concept of "work" bothers me too). When I get back tonight, there will probably be 3 more pages of the same nonsense.... |

Location: Phoenix AZ | There's a big difference between saying "Taylor guitars suck" and "I hate Taylor guitars."
The former (suck) is a statement without merit about the guitars design, sound, playability, construction, cosmetics, etc. Without some benchmark or metric this is a rediculus statement. I've slipped and said it myself, but I try to be careful about such meaningless and arbitrary statements.
The later (hate) is a completely valid personal opinion about Taylor guitars. It needs no explanation, can not be second guessed and carries meaning only to the person saying it (me).
OK, I'm predicting we can hit 7 pages. Unless someone goes over the line and we get shut down.
Onward-ho
