Default FS: Baby Taylor

I'm thinking of upgrading to a GS-Mini but first the Baby Taylor would have to go. It's in excellent condition. I barely played it. Comes with the original soft shell case.

$225 plus actual shipping costs ($20-25).

PayPal or a check is fine. However the buyer would want to pay.

I'll sweeten the deal with a new set of strings!

Default Not just for kids!

Just a little friendly bump and accolades for the humble Baby Taylor. I've since changed to a carbon fiber for camping, but for several years I used my Baby Taylor for leading songs and serenading the riders on trail rides I managed. The guitar carries (sonically) well, is easy to transport and store, and can also be given to the grandkid when it's time for them to begin!

Cheers all,

Phil

Thanks for the bump Phil. It is a great guitar. My GS Mini Mahogany arrives tomorrow and I'm hoping this finds a new home soon!

The Dread Jr is great. I did try one out. I thought it would be fun to have a Mahogany top and I paid a fair price for a used one. I'm kind of sad to see the Baby Taylor go but I know it won't get much use. I thought about keeping it until my son is a little older but it might as well go to a good home for now.

Coincidentally, I also recently bought a GS Mini mahogany. In my case I wanted a guitar for Nashville (high) tuning, and the GS has been doing a great job...

Good luck on your sale. I replaced the standard saddle with a bone saddle from Bob Colosi and it improved the tone and sustain noticeably.

Best,

Phil

Sadly my GS Mini arrived not as described so it's getting returned. I have a Musicians Friend 15% coupon that will work on the Dread JR. Sepele which looks very nice. How would the two compare?
