    The Yamaha FG 1500 is indeed a great guitar. Brazilian rosewood. And the backs of those guitars are really beautiful. After posting my arsenal of instruments, I broke out the Taylor to play for a while. Nice break from the brass instruments. Now my left hand fingers hurt!!! Guitar players will know.

    Sorry for hijacking this post a little. I hope Mike finds a buyer for the great Adams E3 with short throw valves. A great horn, no doubt.

    1) Somebody buy my horn!

    2) Any time there's crossover between my euphonium playing community and my guitar playing community, I'm happy. I'm mostly an electric player, but I'm currently lusting after a Taylor 814.

    Yes, the sides are Brazilian rosewood. I also got it out and hurt my fingers a bit! Should do it more often!

    The Taylor 814 was what I traded in to get the Taylor 912 (rather what my wife traded for me!). Those are really nice guitars.

    Bump - This configuration is about 9,800 new, and that doesn't include the custom valves. This is a pretty good deal, if I do say so myself!
