About This Product!
Description
The Baby Taylor is the ultimate travel companion, delivering volume and tone that surprise for its diminutive dimensions. At 3/4 the size of a full-sized guitar, the Baby Taylor lives for the road. It also loves little hands, which makes it an irresistible choice for kids taking lessons. Available with either a solid spruce or solid mahogany top.
At a 3/4 in. 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.
An alternate version of the original Baby Taylor substitutes a solid Mahogany top, giving this 3/4-size Dreadnought a dark, attractive complexion and a mid-range boost.

Taylor BT2 Baby Taylor Mahogany 3/4-Size Acoustic Guitar (with Gig Bag) Reviews
10 out of 10
Taylor BT2 Baby Taylor Customer Review
Quality:
Well built. very solid, not toy-like.
Value:
Pricey, but well worth it.
Sound:
I tried five 3/4 size guitars by: Taylor,Martin, Ibanez, Yamaha and another one that I can't remeber the name. Baby Taylor beat all of them hands down. NO CONTEST!! Martin is built like a tank, very solid but the tone is very dull and the others are nothing more than Toys. Baby Taylor is a real instrument, well built with solid top and ebony finger board and bridge. It has a wonderfull action and sound (you can hear the over tones very clear)and an absolute joy to play it. I bought the Baby mahagony which has a warmer tone, two years ago. Since then I have retired all my other standard size guitars including my Taylor 510 (I have small hands). Do not compare the sound of the 3/4 with a standard size guitar, naturally the full size will have a fuller and deeper sound. However the Baby Taylor DOES sound better than some full size guitars. I just whish this guitar had a built-in pickup. Try it for yourself and see.
Ease of Use:
Very nice neck. Electric-fast.
Support:
Have not tried them.
