"i love my baby taylor"

Feature:
the gig bag that comes with the guitar is great. i flew all over europe with it and because of the extra padding and stiffness i never had a problem checking it. also, the strings it ships with are great. i'm now hooked on elixirs. about 2 months after i bought the guitar someone sat down to play it and after about 1 minute he looked up, smiled and said, "new strings!" little did he know.

Quality:
i have noticed no flaws in the construction. granted, it's a less expensive guitar and you can tell that they cut corners in many areas like aesthetics and the bolt on neck, but i feel they put the value where it counts.

Value:
i believe it's the best cheap acoustic you can buy.

Desirability:
i constant find myself drawn to the guitar. it's so great for fingerpicking and just jamming out.

Sound:
the guitar has a beautiful sound that is slighty cheap sounding...in a good way. it has a sort of boxy bluesiness to it that i really like a lot. as far as expressiveness goes, i think it's fantastic. i feel it has tons more range than many other acoustics i've tried.

Support:
no need for support yet.

Overall:
i really could not be more happy with the purchase. i can't believe how cheap it was for what i got.

Baby Taylor Guitars Customer Review

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.

Description

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.
