A big reason for the guitar’s wide-
spread popularity is its portability,
and the Baby Taylor has taken this
to a whole new level. The ¾-size
Dreadnought helped establish
the travel guitar market, and now,
even 14 years after its debut, its
appeal remains as strong as ever
for travelers, children and artists
from Lindsey Buckingham to Taylor
Swift for a simple reason: It plays
and sounds like a real guitar. Its
bigger, louder sibling, the Big Baby,
is another favorite for players who
want to keep a songwriting guitar
handy at the office, in their house
for friends to pick up and play, or as
an alternate-tuning guitar. Whatever
your needs, whichever direction
you may be headed, the Baby’s
appeal is as far and wide as you
want to go.
You don’t have to be off in the
wilderness to appreciate the Baby
Taylor’s portability. It makes a great
companion when you’re com-
muting around town, too. Plus,
you’ll be well equipped if you get
inspired to do a little busking on
the fly.
