The Baby Taylor Acoustic: Taylor’s Version
From her country-tinged self-titled debut to the record-shattering pop-music masterpiece 1989 and beyond, there is one thing (besides multi-platinum status) that all of Taylor Swift’s albums have in common. Each of her LPs features massive, global hit songs evolved from melodies and chord progressions written on an acoustic guitar. Inspired by her writing process and memories of crafting songs on her own Baby Taylor, Taylor Swift partnered with Taylor Guitars to inspire a whole new generation of young guitar players and songwriters with the Taylor Swift Baby Taylor acoustic guitar. What Sweetwater guitarists find particularly notable about this model is its 3/4-scale dreadnought body. This accommodation, paired with a slim, mahogany neck, makes this acoustic a comfortable and manageable guitar for younger players without sacrificing any of the warm, full tone provided by the spruce and sapele body tonewoods. Adorned with an ebony bridge, die-cast chrome tuners, and a custom soundhole rosette created by Swift, the Taylor Swift Baby Taylor acoustic is a guitar destined for the next Chairman of the Tortured Poet’s Department.

Folklore
Long before she was selling out stadiums, Taylor Swift wrote songs in her bedroom and played local stages throughout rural Pennsylvania and Tennessee. Many of her earlier-era songs written and featured on her first albums were, in fact, crafted on her Baby Taylor, which served as the inspiration for her signature collaboration with Taylor Guitars. The Taylor Swift Baby Taylor was designed specifically with the singer/songwriter in mind. It's an instrument built for comfort and portability from quality woods that offer a warm, full tone. A creative’s best friend, this guitar is primed for all-night writing sessions or to accompany onstage the honest, heartfelt voice of the budding artist.
Out of the woods
The Taylor Swift Baby Taylor is a prime example of the high-quality tonewoods Taylor selects for its guitars. The Sitka spruce top provides strong projection and the perfect amount of sparkle, while the layered sapele back and sides offer a warm and mellow quality, similar to that of mahogany. Paired with a mahogany neck capped with an ebony fretboard, the Taylor Swift Baby Taylor produces a balanced, full-bodied sound.
Who’s afraid of little old me?
With a 3/4-scale size compared to a full-sized dreadnought acoustic guitar, the body of a Taylor Swift Baby Taylor is compact yet still full in terms of tone. With a smaller profile, the Taylor Swift Baby Taylor is not only suitable for a younger player's stature but is also an excellent acoustic choice for singer/songwriters on the go or those confined to tight writing, rehearsal, and performance spaces.
