Taylor Big Baby Acoustic Guitar

The Taylor Baby series of guitars offer a great travel design and all feature a solid spruce top and come with a deluxe gig bag! This 15/16 Dreadnaught body has a surprisingly full tone and offers guitarists an affordable way into the Taylor range!

Construction

How do Taylor do this at this price? Part of the secret is in Bob Taylor’s unique and clever bolt on neck design. Not only does this design make the neck joint more stable and less prone to developing a hump, but it also makes the guitars much quicker to build (thus keeping the price down). The tops on the guitars are all solid spruce and the back and sides are made of a compressed wood.

Bob Taylor is a clever chap and is always pushing the boundaries of guitar making. The Taylor Big Baby is an excellent guitar. You may be unsure about the functionality of baby body guitars but pick one up and play it and we’re sure you’ll be impressed!

Here’s what Taylor have to say about the Big Baby:

The Big Baby Taylor has long been a mainstay for developing acoustic players seeking a comfortable, smooth-playing guitar that will help them grow their skills and learn to make music. Built to a slightly smaller scale than a full-size acoustic guitar, the Big Baby’s solid spruce top provides rich acoustic tone in a package that’s perfect for students and players who need a reliable practice option that isn’t too precious to take on the road. It ships with a padded gig bag.
