677 total were made, even though the labels were printed out, before the guitars were made, and the label says the guitar # out of 1000 guitars making the guitar even more interesting.. I still have the email from Taylor stating this information. The production was stopped at 677 because the source they had in South America wouldn't sell Taylor any more Satinwood. If you have one of these, you are a very lucky person. I own #52. Purchased in Rochster NY in year 2000.
The JKSM looks and sounds lovely. Thanks for including the all the body dimension data. I’m also 5’ 9¾”, and lots of, um, man-sized guitars feel like they’re about 3% too big for comfort. It’s not enough to stop me playing them, but it sometimes makes playing feel like working.
LOL - I may have to pass this along to the one who threw that "Homer" shade at you :) I still have my D-15 dreadnaught I got around that time, and love the way it sounds. Love your videos, love your gear, need to catch up sometime soon.

Awesome! Mine is number 520 :) so it’s like a descendant of yours

Thank you! Yeah, the GA and OOO and OM sizes are pretty excellent for this. Just taking a little off the waist and the depth makes a big difference.

Please do! I was hoping they’d see that moment and appreciate it. hashtag vindicated I guess
