Taylor BT1
Taylor
Taylor is an American company that was founded in 1974 when two boys bought an old hippie guitar shop. The boys were very passionate about guitars and put a lot of energy into the shop. Eventually, the shop evolved into an international company. All Taylor guitars today are made in either El Cajon in California or Tecate in Mexico. Taylor is very proud of this, because guitars that are produced close to headquarters go through a more thorough quality control process and employee satisfaction is better regulated. Taylor prioritises tone and comfort. All guitars are perfected and with modern luthier techniques the guitars can be made with more precision and consistency.
The Baby Taylor Series
The Baby Taylor series contains guitars that are a quarter smaller than the standard guitar. The guitars are thus ideal for younger players but also for the travelling musician. All guitars in the series have solid tops and comfortable necks.
The BT1
The BT1 is a great guitar. The body has a solid spruce top and laminated walnut back and sides. This will result in a warm and deep sound. The guitar has a maple neck and an ebony fretboard. The guitar has a baby Dreadnought body. This is the most popular guitar shape on the market. The rectangle-esque shape of the body makes the resonance deeper and makes the guitar ideal for rhythm guitar. Furthermore, the shape gives the guitar a nicely balanced sound.
