Hey,

I'm looking at buying a Taylor and wanted to know the difference between the 110 and the 210.
I've played a 110 and loved it but would like a little more bottom end, can anyone help me out?

Thanks

You can compare them here (click specs):

Looks like the back and sides on the 110 are laminate. Also the 210 comes with a hardshell case.

If you get one, let us know how you like it; I'd love to have a Taylor.

Hmm let me know about the 210 too. He is right about the laminate. I have a 110 and really love it... ive had it for about a year. You are totally right though, it lacks a tad in low end.

Thanks for your replies guys.
I actually ended up buying a Taylor 410ce on the weekend.
It was more than I wanted to spend but I fell in love with it and figured that hey I'm probably going to keep this guitar for the rest of my life so why not spend the extra $.
For the record the 410 is an amazing guitar, I would reccommend it to anyone!

Thanks

Trav,

I did the same thing as you! I got tired of searching and went out on a limb (and over budget) and got a near-mint 510-LTD. It's beautiful and sounds great. Like u, this will more than likely be my life-time steel string acoustic.

Happy I got it!

Rick,

I'm hearing you brother!
Couldn't be happier with mine, my fingers are starting to bleed!
What electrics do you play?

Trav,

Yahoo for us! LOL

My fingers are a bit sore as well. It's harder to fret than my nylon string Ovation, but hey, practice, practice, practice. Right?

I've got an Agile AL3000P CSB, but I haven't fooled around with it yet. No amp. Will be going Agile -> PodXT -> Computer when I do.

We B happy!

PS The fellow I got the 510LTD said he's keeping one of his Taylors; it's a 410CE.

I have a Taylor 214 which is solid sapele back and sides with a solid spruce top, ebony fingerboard and bridge. The 210 is the same guitar, just in a drednaught version, I believe.

mmm all you guys and your sweet *** Taylors. I'm still happy with my 110 for now. At some point I would love to spring for a higher end Taylor Acoustic/Electric so that I can plug er in too... that will be a good while I think though.

I Think that Crafters are exceptional Guitars.

the 210 also has bracing for the back, where the 110 does not
