Taylor Acoustic Guitars
Born in a small “hippie” guitar shop in El Cajon, California, Taylor Guitars quickly became one of the top guitar manufacturers in the world. It is particularly well-known for its exceptional line of acoustic guitar models. Brian's Guitars is a reliable resource for new and used Taylor acoustic guitars, which has a model and finish that is right for you.
Precision Engineering for Unrivaled Playability
Offering an exceptional blend of traditional craftsmanship and advanced engineering, Taylor is widely celebrated for stressing smooth and comfortable playing. Its acoustic guitars are designed and manufactured with extreme precision to fit the playing style of a broad scope of musicians.
Taylor’s extraordinarily smooth neck and famously low action (short distance between the strings and the fretboard) are key components of this playability. Taylor guitar necks are typically made from maple or mahogany, maximizing stability and comfort.
Although guitarists of all skill levels praise Taylor acoustic guitars, the brand’s well-earned reputation for playability has made it a favorite among beginner and intermediate players. Most Taylor models are generally good for newcomers to the guitar. Still, Brain’s Guitars recently singled out the Taylor GS Mini as one of the top 5 best acoustic guitars for beginners. The Taylor GS Mini is a smaller size that is perfect for travel and has a full, clear sound far bigger than its 23.5" scale. Although beginners might buy a Taylor GS Mini for its playability, its terrific sonic quality will likely keep them playing it for years.
Distinctive Expression System 2 Electronic
If your musical ambitions extend beyond strumming quietly in your room or playing privately for a few friends and family members, you will likely want to amplify your guitar to allow more people to hear it. However, you might want to keep a natural acoustic sound rather than recreate the distinctive sound of an electric guitar. Taylor Guitar’s novel Expression System 2 (ES2) allows you to do just that.
A real game-changer in the world of acoustic guitar amplification, the highly innovative ES2 has a unique pickup design that captures an authentic acoustic sound, unlike any other guitar hardware system on the market. Positioned under the saddle of the guitar rather than in the sound hole, the ES allows for enhanced dynamic range and clarity, making Taylor guitars the go-to choice for live performances and studio recordings alike.
