R. Taylor Style 1: Flame Maple

 
Is there anything better looking than a highly figured Flame maple? The maple neck and body binding along with the flamed center strip augment the beauty of this guitar without drawing your eyes away from the wood grain. Ok it looks great, but how does it sound? I am a self admitted rosewood fan but R. Taylor has once again proved to me that a maple guitar can be bright and sparkle without lacking a solid bass response and strong note fundamental. Great looks and a very appealing tone, this guitar has it all!
