Collectors Models Available While Very Limited Stocks Last
In 1974, Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug founded Taylor Guitars in a humble workshop in Lemon Grove, California. What started as a small operation soon evolved into one of the most renowned acoustic guitar brands in the world. Known for their impeccable craftsmanship, innovative designs, and commitment to sustainability, Taylor Guitars has built a legacy that resonates with musicians of all styles and skill levels. From beginners to seasoned professionals, Taylor’s instruments are cherished for their playability, tonal excellence, and enduring quality.
Over the decades, Taylor has set industry standards with innovations like the NT neck, which offers precise intonation and easy adjustability, and the Expression System, an onboard pickup that authentically captures the natural voice of the guitar. Their forward-thinking approach has solidified Taylor's reputation as a leader in acoustic guitar innovation. As Taylor celebrates its 50th anniversary, the brand continues to push boundaries, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern technology.
