Product Description

The 2010 Taylor Baritone 8-string guitar has a truly unique voice, the 8-string baritone GS complements the baritone's lower tonal range by pairing two octave strings with the third and fourth strings, adding a touch of upper-octave brightness without too much 12-string jangle. The result is a guitar with incredible tonal range, perfect for walking basslines and rich melodies.

Taylor baritone guitars are designed for playing in a lower register with normal string tension, thanks to a longer 27-inch scale length. Tuned to B (B E A D F# B), the deeper acoustic tone is voiced with the GS body shape and a wood combination of Indian rosewood with Sitka spruce. A great choice for singers with a lower vocal range or players who favor a detuned sound, the baritone is offered as either a 6-string or an 8-string with two added octave strings that expand the tonal range.

Taylor's Specialty models stand out for having distinctive design properties that translate into a unique playing experience. The Specialty category was inspired by several models that were developed to commemorate Taylor's 35th anniversary. Each delivered a fresh acoustic voice that was unlike any other guitar in Taylor's production lineup. The more Taylor played these models, the more they felt they deserved a place in the Taylor line. Each Specialty model embodies the best of Taylor innovation and promises to inspire players in a whole new way. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Taylor products.
