Taylor Guitars Blind Test | Can Chris Guess Which is Which?

- Today we decided to have some fun-- I (Cooper) chose a handful of Taylors to test Chris' expertise. How does he do? As you're probably guessing... pretty dang good. Watch the shenanigans and let us know what blind tests you'd like to see next!

You should’ve put that blue acoustic in his lap he did the review on you guys purchased from Amazon for around 12 dollars! 🤣
There is something to be said for on screen chemistry both of you boys have "it". What ever "It" is ! You work so well together it makes watching an absolutely pleasure. all the very best stay safe and please keep up the great work. kindest Regards.
Cooper plays the perfect "straight man".
the „it“ you are looking for is „on screen chemistry“ ..you answered your question before you asked it
Cooper's reaction when Chris first said "spruce/rosewood" for that 324ce 😂 overall Chris did a great job, though! These blind tests are always very interesting.
You guys should absolutely do a follow up of this with some very different stuff. It's a great mine for interesting content, and it's a great way to talk about what features really make a guitar stand out.
Great job Chris! This was fun to watch and the discussion on how you chose was interesting. I am a Taylor fanatic so really enjoyed. Thanks for the fun.
This was a lot of fun to watch. My respect for Chris has just gone up a notch or two. Well done, Chris!
Very fun to watch you guys do a blindfold test. Love the other blindfold tests on RUclips. Also love seeing the 914ce LTD on the channel again. I absolutely love mine. Nick was a pleasure to work with. Thanks guys, keep it up
After cruising through your website, seems you're up to your neck in the Taylor world!
Love this! Cooper's turn next video.
We already shot one with Cooper that is currently available on Patreon, we will release it later on RUclips. It is a lot of fun! - Chris.
Good job boys! Chris, you’re a sommelier of guitars. What an ear for tone.
That was fun and impressive! Well done Chris 👍🏻
I’m new to the Taylor family thanks to you guys. We don’t live too far, definitely a bucket list item to get to Alamo Music and see y’all.
This was a bundle of fun! For what it’s worth, actually my favorite playing I’ve heard from Chris
This was a lot of fun. You two add realism to the term "Dynamic Duo" !
That was impressive! Nicely done, guys. The first time I saw one of your videos (about a year ago) it was pretty obvious you knew your way around the Taylor line, and I was just a newb.
Always learn something new and useful, for the guitar geek. Good job.
I think it would be cool to see someone try to guess/explain the guitar while listening blindfolded: aka if Cooper would play and Chris would explain what he hears, what is overtone, which one sounds "richer"... maybe after a few more episodes... Maybe the point wouldn't be to guess which model it is, but rather which one out of the three he thinks its closer to a certain price point perhaps, or something of that nature.
I got a Taylor, and I enjoy listening to some higher end guitars, but not sure I understand all the nuances and details you guys can distinguish...
Also, I want to compliment you on the quality of the sound you upload- I understand that you "have to" give the business you are in, but you certainly "don't have to" yet you chose to record nice quality sound... and it sounds very nice on our end!
We really like this kind videos, keep going guys. Good job, Chris.
Nice vid - so fun to watch!!! my suggestion: Grand Auditorium Rosewood shootout: Taylor 814ce vs Furch Red or Orange GC-SR vs Martin GPC-28!!!
Martin 000 and om blind shootout!!
I guess you could differentiate them without playing since their necks are quite different (scale length, nut width, taper are all different).
I meant just a test on a martin 000 and oms not necessarily to differentiate between the 2 but to guess the models of them.
This is probably one of my favorite videos from Alamo! 👏🏼blind👏🏼test🔥
😂 well done. First one sounded the best.
Well done! I'd like to see a blind listening test with cutaway compared to no cutaway to see if you can hear the difference!!
So Cooper would play and Chris would listen!!
Chris wins! I've mentioned in other video comments, but I had such a positive experience when I visited your store a couple of weeks ago. I felt naked because the picks I usually keep in my console for visiting guitar shops weren't there, but your guys provided one and a tuner. They were more than willing to unlock any guitar in the acoustic room. Just super helpful and more than ready to accommodate me as I tried different guitars. Not your fault that Martin & Gibson are behind on orders, but I was able to compare the Taylors I wanted to hear. Alamo Music is the real deal, folks. Make the trip to San Antonio if you can. Plenty to do in the area while you mull your final decision. My favorite city and music shop. PS, I live 4 hours south of them, and I would gladly make the drive to deal with them again.
I can tell which is which of MY guitars because we're old friends. But, damn dudes. Chris, much respect.
Awesome job guys , you know your Taylors. Im looking for my first 12 string acoustic and I’m liking what Taylor has to offer. Just thinking maybe you can do a double blind by throwing in a couple of Martin and maybe a Guild and do a 12 string review. Can’t get enough early 70s rock music, Eagles, classic Zep, America, ELP. I’m headed back to my youth and I’ve got the 12 string itch . Thanks in advance, So. Cal.

Wow! Great job Chris. Amazing. I wish too you'd of done a 614. My personal pick of the litter.
Great job!
Impressive effort. This was a challenging test. Picking guitars out within one manufacturer's lineup is hard because they hall have manufacturer specific characteristics. I'd expect to be able to tell the difference between a Taylor V braced vs a Martin guitar very quickly by sound alone. I'd also expect to be able the difference between mahogany and spruce topwoods. Hard mode would be picking the difference between different species of spruce top based on sound alone.
This is great. Chris looks genuinely nervous!
Taylor guitars are great . I have a cheapy 214CE Grand Auditorium but the Rosewood really comes throuh. Big body but also big sound with lots of sympathetic overtones. I like them all. ( Terry from Oz).
I kept waiting for you to hit the 324 a little harder. The compression always stands out to me on strumming. Mahogany stays bright enough on the trebles that I don’t notice the difference nearly as much fingerstyle
That, and experiencing the guitar in a way that made it seem larger was the most difficult aspects of that guitar. - Chris
I can't believe that he was able to difirenciate the guitars pretty much just hearing the tone
to be fair, he knows the inventory, and he owns and demos soooo many Taylor's. The finish/bevel are such a giveaway when u know the Taylor series.
differentiate - I can tell the difference...
I want to see you do a blind test (because your video made me buy them) between D-28, Guild 55, FG5 yamaha, Guild D-240e and lastly the Taylor 314 or similar from the Taylor line - Let's see just how good you are;-)
Good going
Role reversal is in order in my opinion...
nobody really cares what you've ordered
The world is full of apathy it seems... I usually get the Teriyaki Chicken; no dessert.
AND My order is gonna have CF Martin on the headstock.
Very nice sir
I'd like to see you compare the 414 ce R and the 414 Sinker redwood....love both, can't seem to find both of them in the same store at the same time so I can do a side-by-side comparison
That would be fun - the spruce would be louder and the redwood would have more overtones. If I knew the two guitars going in it wouldn't be difficult to pick which is which. - Chris
114 vs 314 vs 814?
Enjoyed! However...needed a 100 laminate...a true dread...and a V Class possibly.
this is way cool
Hot Sauce... I want to see a Hot Sauce blind test.
pls review taylor 412r ce
Do sound only, no feel. Same body and brand, just different wood combos. No touching. Ear only.
Why even hold it? Do a blind sound test and try to guess tone woods and tops please. Bet you fail lol
Having him handle the guitars is not as interesting as if he was asked to identify guitars, from a list, by listening alone. He talks alot about how the guitars "feel".
:O
