Sound : 10
This guitar is perfect for moderate to heavy strumming. It would suit most any type of music, though. I have finger picked it and strummed it and it performed great through all the music I played.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 10
The Koa is absolutely beautiful and is on the endangered species list now, so any guitars made from this wood will continue to rise in value.
The gloss finsh on the top is soft and mirror-like in appearance. The satin finish on the back and sides gives the Koa an orangey glow. It has the New Tech Neck design and the fit of the neck and heel are incredible. It’s amazing the tolerances that Taylor can achieve with wood!

Reliability/Durability : 10
I wouldn’t be afraid to take this guitar to any gig, live or otherwise. It is solidly built, like all Taylors and the finish seems to be able to take some bumps without showing the effects.
The strap buttons are very sturdy and the guitar, overall, seems like a very dependable instrument.

Customer Support : 10
If you’ve never dealt with Taylor, for any reason, then you have no concept of how great a company they really are.
From the very beginning the service is outstanding.
They seem to be relentless in making sure that their customers are happy with their guitars.
The repair department is second to none and usually can have your guitar back to you in just a few days. The warranty is incredible. Limited lifetime!

Overall Rating : 10
This guitar is a fantastic instrument. Although I feel a little biased towards Taylor, I really would have no trouble recommending them to any body looking for a good hi-quality guitar.

They stand behind their products with unfailing fervency and have a very loyal customer base.
