Sitka spruce top. 3/4-scale. Natural finish.
Overview
At a 3/4-scale, the Baby Taylor is the little Dreadnought that could. Taylor's ultra-portable travel mate belies its size with a sweet, full voice and great tone. It's remarkably versatile for special applications, whether played in alternate tunings or high-strung; with a capo or a slide. And it's the perfect starter guitar for young kids. A solid Sitka spruce top, coupled with a durable Sapele laminate arched back, packs a heap of tone into a small body, and yields great clarity and projection.

"Amazing sound for such a small guitar. Very easy to play and the gig bag is ample protection for it on trips. I would not hesita"
I expect to keep it indefinitely. The Baby Taylor is heads up over the other travel size guitars that I have played and own.
Sound
I had no idea that the sound would be so good in such a small package. It sounds better than several of my full size dreadnaughts. Yes, there are better sounds found in the higher end full size guitars, but considering it's size, it's a 10.
Features
Not many extras, but hey, it works!!
Ease of Use
It is the most playable guitar from the start that I have ever owned.
Quality
I looked it over end to end when I received it. It is a QUALITY guitar with obviously the best factory control.

The Wow Factor
It is mostly just "plain", but is adequate. The sound makes up for any lack of looks.
