Customer Reviewsfrom Kansas City, Mo May 14, 2012 Music Background: Composer, Music Teacher Easy on arthritic thumb.I have severe arthritis at the base of my left hand thumb. Since the Baby Taylor has a smaller neck, it fits my hand so much better, and now I can play the guitar again without a lot of pain.from Sunnyvale, CA April 13, 2012 Music Background: Retired grandma Baby Taylor GuitarLove my Baby T.... So much easier to handle and not having to worry about grappling a regular sized guitar; so when I'm learning to play there's not a thought of how cumbersome it could be. Makes concentrating on what I'm playing a breeze, and the sound is great. In fact, I see other gals in our slack key class w/baby T's, so its a winner among the ladies.Mahalo, for making such a great little, big sounding guitar that's a winner for sure. Aloha, Janie from Knoxville, TN USA July 5, 2011 Baby Taylor - guitarWhat a great service, product, shipping etc.everything went so well and my baby girl is happy. thanks sweetwater team from Union, KY March 10, 2011 Music Background: Chief Engineer at the Studio of Light Perfect Studio GuitarI had a martin and knew that it was a little big/warm/boomy for certain applications where the acoustic is not the center of a song and you wind up doing som serious carving to get it to find its shiny little spot in a busy mix. Not this bad boy!! I did a song where this was the center, and tracked it with an AT4021 through a 73 Pre and did almost no EQ other than a minor dip at 500!! I changed the strings to Daddario medium 80/20 as the elixers are thin and feel like rubber, the bigger strings also keep the taylor buzz at a minimum.from Meridian,Mississippi "Land'O Peavey" February 19, 2009 Music Background: I'm 48 and have been in love with Making Music for Over 38 years Alan Say's "BUY IT!"Just bought two of these babies and the skb hardshell cases.Joel Gragg is my SweetWater Sales Technician and He Hooked me UP! I can't put this little mahogany guitar down.I've got several acoustic guitars and they are all fine Guitars, but for the money you'll not find a better sounding acoustic anywhere and SweetWater beat all the competition on Price. This Guitar is as beautiful as it sounds. Very handsome looking Wood! Thank's Guy'sfrom Kamuela,Hawaii USA September 30, 2008 Music Background: musician Amazing sound for a small size guitar !!!my wife and my pastor surprised me with this baby t2 mahogany for my birthday. At first, i was questioning about the size being small but when i played it, i was blown away by its sound. It sounds full for its size. I've been playing it ever since. Try it! You'll get what you pay for.from Wise, VA December 5, 2006 Music Background: Hobbyist Now that I own this Guitar.....Now that I own this guitar, I thought I would give another review. One of my friends let me play one is how I knew about it. Like I said before, it is an excellent guitar. It has a wonderful tone. I am blown away by how low they can keep the costs on these things. You would expect to pay $1000 for something this good. I got mine installed with a Fishman Matrix pickup. It sounds just as good plugged up, as it does not plugged up. No volume or EQ controls, but with the high quality pickup system, you really don't need volume and tone controls and you can adjust it on your mixer. This is a great instrument for the price. I have heard other reviews say, "This guitar is only good for a campfire guitar" But I could easily see someone using the baby on stage or in the studio.from Wise, Va July 29, 2006 Music Background: Hobbyist Excellent Taylor QualityTaylors make some of the best acoustics. Ranging in price from $269.97- $3,000+. The tone of a Taylor is superb, rich, and full. Even Though the Baby Taylor is $269.97, and is smaller than full-size, it is still an excellent sounding guitar. The action is low and has little buzzing. If you are a beginner, this is perfect for you, if you are a seasoned player on a tight budget, this is right down your alley.from henry, tn December 8, 2008 Music Background: 58 year old hobbyist. baby mahoganeyMy friend from NC showed up with small guitar case. When he opened it up, I just looked at the intrument and said "dang thats a pretty little uke. When I finally had the chance to hear it and then play it, I was truly amazed. Beautiful, full sound and tone range. I'll be in touch.from Kona, Hawaii January 29, 2007 Music Background: Part Time Pro Great Guitar for Travel/Songwriting CompanionThis is a great guitar for camping, taking to the beach, keeping in your car in case you're somewhere you want to play, keeping at work to take a break and play, etc. Sounds good for what it is, and well made. A few notes-Volume is loud enough for playing alone or rhythm with a friend. You may want a full size or the Big Baby to cut through at larger jam sessions, though. Would be fun to have one with a pickup on stage. Tone is very good for a guitar this size. I got a spruce top guitar by mistake and then the mahogany top came. I would recommend the mahogany top even if you prefer a spruce top guitar for your full size. The tone is better and warmer on this size guitar. Still not "deep bass", but good midrange tone. Perfect for blues, folk, or fingerstyle. Size - perfect for travel, sitting on the couch at home, etc. As a former full time guitar teacher, though, I would recommend a Big Baby (15/16) for young kids 7-10. Much younger than that and you're better off waiting 'til they get older anyway - start them on piano or drums. Workmanship is good - I'm not sure if they're making these in Mexico or US, but in any event my guitar is well put together... though the one I got at first by mistake had a buzz on the 1st string. Bottom line is they use good materials - Ebony Fretboard / bridge , TUSQ nut, that they use on Full Size Taylors. Tuners aren't the "Taylor" ones on upper end models, but are still good quality. Bottom line - this is the most well made 3/4 size travel guitar you will find. I've played the ones by Martin and Washburn and this one blows them away. from North Kingstown, RI March 23, 2009 Music Background: guitar nut Nice BabyI just picked up the Baby Mahogany for a family vacation in the tropics. The Taylor had attributes that I felt were important: solid wood top, ebony fret board. This is a very lively instrument for it's size and with great action and intonation. My bar is set pretty high as I have vintage Martins and I am very satisfied. If you are considering a travel guitar, this is a winner.
