The Winds Of Change! So far, I have had the joy of trading two USA Made Fender Stratocasters for two separate Made In USA Fender Telecasters, and as the the 'winds of change and adventure' continue to blow, I am now reaching out to find another great player who might like to have my Made In USA Taylor 310ce Acoustic Guitar in trade for their Made In USA Martin, Non-Cutaway, Acoustic Guitar!
Purchased New In Pennsylvania!
This 2003 Taylor has been with me since I bought it new at a music shop named 'Wray Music House' in Lemoyne, PA. I had worked in their guitar department, while gigging at night, before moving on to work as a full time musician and teacher. With that said, I had already developed a great love and respect for the shop and for that entire wall of Taylor guitars that they kept and maintained in a special humidified room.
Hand Picked!
On the day of my purchase, I sat and played a great variety of Taylor guitars until I had finally found one that was voiced exactly to my liking. Then, on that day more than twenty years ago, I walked out the door with a brand new Taylor 310ce in a beautiful Taylor hard case. I felt like a million bucks - and, this guitar continues to deliver in each and every time I pick it up and play!
Fast Forward To Today!
Fast forward to today, and with the winds of change and adventure still blowin', I thought that I might seek out a Martin acoustic, made in my hometown state of Pennsylvania, change course and attempt to play a bit of bluegrass with it!
That's it - that's my story in a nutshell... So, if the winds of change and adventure are in your life as well and you'd like to trade one iconic American Made guitar for another, while gaining a cutaway in the process, feel free to let me know what you have in mind to trade!







Since brand new the fretboard has had a lighter section at the second fret. It's just the natural color of the wood.
