Taylor Guitars, co-founded by Bob Taylor, is the modern benchmark for acoustic guitar manufacturing, celebrated globally for its superb playability, consistent quality, and bright, balanced tone. Built in El Cajon, California, Taylor revolutionised the industry with the introduction of the NT Neck design (a bolt-on neck system) and the innovative V-Class Bracing, which enhances volume, sustain, and intonation. Their flagship body shapes include the versatile Grand Auditorium (GA), the punchy Grand Concert (GC), and the powerful Grand Pacific (GP) round-shoulder dreadnought. Taylor's electrics, like the T5z, blend acoustic and electric tones seamlessly. The line spans from the premium 800 Series and Custom Shop to the accessible Academy and GS Mini models, ensuring a high-quality instrument for every player. Equipped with the proprietary Expression System 2 (ES2) pickup, a Taylor Grand Auditorium or GS Mini provides superior amplified tone and the easiest playing experience in the acoustic market.
