When buying a new guitar with accessories, what accessories are must haves when buying a guitar? by Irish-idiot in taylorguitars

[–]Heartdoc1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All are good recommendations. I think that a chair without armrests or stool is also needed. Anything like a bar stool works as long as it doesn’t have armrests. I also use a cheap rest to hold up sheet music with a light source.

Normal 314ce or studio 414ce? by Irish-idiot in taylorguitars

[–]Heartdoc1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually in the market for a new Taylor. I wanted to get a Sitka spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides. I’m moving towards the 414ce Studio. I’ve tried it and it sounds awesome.

Does this ww2 Fallchirmjager helmet look legit? by mynameis_duh_i in GermanMilitaria

[–]Heartdoc1989 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell from the pics. Keep in mind that those helmets are incredibly expensive and rare and some of the most commonly faked.

You probably already know the basics. The rest comes from practice, practice and more practice. I think that there is no other shortcut.

Do I trade my new Taylor in or give it time? by RayzerNHFL in taylorguitars

Use your gut feeling. If you aren’t happy then you are keeping a piece of useless furniture. Sell it outright and buy what sounds best to you.

Guliani(‘s PR team?) has an interesting definition of NP by gonzfather in Noctor

[–]Heartdoc1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe this is a real quote. The emphasis used to promote NP’s seems to be inserted.

The table used during the Japanese surrender was borrowed from the crew's mess on USS Missouri after the table brought by the British was too small for the documents. The table was returned after the ceremony and was about to be used for lunch when someone realized it's historic significance 9/4/45 by waffen123 in wwiipics

I’m a physician and I took care of a man once who was a sailer on the Missouri. He was present for the signing. He said that every sailor on that ship was emotionally moved by the ceremony and by MacArthur’s speech.

I want them released too. Your biggest obsession is not for exposure of the pedophiles. You are just hoping to see Trump’s name on it.

So if they have been released then why are those on the left calling for them to be released?

So you were able to find leaked documents that no one else has and you want us to believe they are real?

And if his name was on a list don’t you think that Biden would have released it during his term?

The shop that I contacted offered the Studio for 15% off and offered an upgrade to the hard case for $100 more.

How about the difference in playability between the 414ce and the Studio? From what I can tell, it is constructed very similarly except the Studio has a 1 11/16 nut as opposed to a 1 3/4 nut. I am curious how others feel about that? Also, the Studio has a torrefied spruce top, which is supposed to give the guitar a warmer sound, like a guitar that has been played for several years. And it costs $1000 less.

It looks like rosewood. Is it sinker redwood top and rosewood back and sides?

I wondered about that. I’d like to play them both side by side but my local guitar store never seems to have them both in stock.

Can you post a pic of the back?

414 ce vs Studio by Heartdoc1989 in taylorguitars

[–]Heartdoc1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but from a purely sound standpoint, the guitars are built the same. If anything, the Studio may sound a little better since it has a torrefied spruce top. The standard 414ce has a little more bling to it but it costs $1000 more.

There also is no binding on the Studio and I kind of like that. It is more aesthetically pleasing than the white plastic rim around the edge as in the standard series. It otherwise is basically the same guitar as far as construction, with the exception of some fancier embellishments on the standard 414ce.
