"Super Big Baby"

Great gig bag - very sturdy.

Quality:
Superb, although mine has peeled a little bit of the varnish off the head of the guitar.

Value:
There is no debate about this....... It is my most valuable little gig guitar I have.

Desirability:
It has helped me bed countless ladies..... I mean that.

Sound:
I have played for a few years and own a fender, yamaha & have had use off an Ibenez etc. I was completely surprised as to the quality of the sound and the clarity. I really cant believe this only cost me

Feature:
It is an acoustic guitar- there are no extras with a standard flat top.

Quality:
Would love to own this guitar with a sharp finish. It has a rather plain satin finish.

Sound:
The sound of this instrument is exceptional. I was very pleased with this guitar. I have been playing for many years. I own Gibson, Fender, and Yamaha guitars. I feel this little Taylor has sound that rivals my Gibson J50. I really like the size of the guitar- it is light and easy to use. The tonal quality and sound "knocked my socks off" when I first tuned it and played it. Then I tried to record some songs with it where I had to pick out a lead in the middle of the song- it was amazing. The only thing I would like to improve is the looks of the instument. It is rather plain looking, but then, you only pay $400. for it. I think Taylor could doll the Big Baby up somewhat and sell it for a much higher price. The old saying of don't judge a book by its cover surely applies to this guitar. If looks aren't paramount with you, this is a real deal.

Support:
I have never had to make a complaint, but the Taylor company answers email punctually.

From Our Catalog
The Baby Taylor's big sibling, a 15/16-scale Dreadnought with a solid Sitka spruce top and sapele-laminate back and sides, boasts a surprisingly full voice, comes with a lightweight gig bag for easy portability, and makes a trusty companion wherever you go - even if it's just to the couch. Measuring just a fraction smaller than a full-size Taylor Dreadnought, the Big Baby is small enough to be a perfect travel companion, yet big enough to be a trusty performer. A durable varnish finish offers protection, good looks, and a smooth feel to the touch. Available in natural finish.
