Hey all, I would like to say thank you to everyone here for the input, and most of all Doug at Morning star music for his expertise.

The problem....Dead battery..I had no idea this guitar had a battery. Johncross was probably right with the nut because I believe that is where the batteries are hiding.

The thing I wasnt expecting was to pay for dead batteries. $29.75 I really hope they didnt charge me labor, because THAT should have been under warranty from Taylor. Oh well, I am just happy to have my baby back. I was really going through withdrawls not having it for the three days it was in the shop. Guy had ALOT of work to take care of.. Good thing he enjoys working on Taylors and "bumped" mine to the top.

Well, got some playing to catch up on. Thanks again all!

I have a Taylor 414ce and recently I was very stumped as to why I was picking up radio stations. I tried everything to get it to play right, starting with messing with the levels, changing cords, changing amps..I then plugged in my Ibanez GAX 70 with the same two cords I tried with my Taylor. On both amps, the guitar played perfect. No radio sound.

I have now confirmed it is my Taylor.. The guitar is less than a year old to me, bought new. I use a Monster acoustic cable, actually bought it because I was hearing distortion and thought my cable was going bad.

I have a warranty but don't know what to do.

Maybe this is something I can fix myself? Has anyone else had this happen to them?
