Pulling the trigger on a F512. I don't gig anymore, I'm about to turn 50, and just never really 'connected' with my Taylor 365ce. I'm old school, and did keep 1 custom amp for the 'just in case I need it, I have it'. Plan to play 99.9% of the time unplugged, at home, sitting outside next to the water or near the fire pit, country, classic rock, maybe eventually blue grass but not sure. Also keeping my GS Mini b/c it's just the best travel guitar. Does it make sense just to get it with the Baggs if the $300 doesn't really matter? or Keep it 'classic' without it? Not sure why I'm hung up on this so much. I guess I feel like seeing the Baggs right there in front of you is a constant reminder that it's not vintage (and it's not) but again, I'm old school. But does it not make economic sense to just get it. And or, is there any 'modification' to the saddle, etc of the guitar that has any tonal our sound impact to playing it uplugged? I feel myself leaning towards the non-E model.
Must be going through a mid-life crisis.. I never liked burst guitars. My first 'les paul' copy was a burst and i hated it so much i gave it away. But I find myself for some reason really drawn to the burst model (spruce top). I assume no tonal affects as a result of applying this effect to the top.
any last suggestions before i pull the trigger on the F512 Burst (spruce)?
cheers!
