New Taylor Model Unveiling October 2-4
Google News floated me an article about a virtual event coming up October 2-4 called "Guitar.com Live", and the article included this tidbit from Jim Kirlin at Taylor:
“The third is a fantastic new guitar that we’ll be unveiling at the Guitar.com Live event. We think it will be a game-changer for many players. Designed entirely from the ground up, it promises to inspire people in a whole new way.” (The other two things they're showcasing are Builder's Edition models and American Dream.) Link to the full story: https://guitar.com/features/intervie...s-guitar-live/ At this point I don't even have a guess on what it might be. |
Well, now that might get me interested if it is indeed a unique model. But I will be waiting and anticipating any news!
|
Something new from Taylor is always intriguing to me!
|
Another “game changer” from Taylor, huh? Seems to happen every year - V-bracing, Grand Pacifics, Builder’s Editions...and now (?). Be interesting to see what they come up with. I can already hear the PR department revving up to full throttle.

Fairly big claims: "game-changer for many players", "Designed entirely from the ground up", "promises to inspire people in a whole new way.”
Taylor is GREAT at marketing, so could be a tremendous build up for a microscopic change to an existing product. V Class was sorta pushed with these buzz word, but was the least sexy change you could make - something you can't see. A few fun thoughts: • A parlor guitar...they have some little stuff, but never have they done something like a traditional Parlor guitar, smaller size 0ish 12 fret. Couch and little guitars are all the rage and GS minis aren't for everyone, certainly not the people who still want a full scale and all-solid, nicer guitar. I think this would be a killer addition to their line-up. • 12 (GC) sized American Dream • T5 type thing but from a totally different approach to voicing (more the approach the Acoustasonics from Fender have) and a slightly different approach to the shape and size. • A SERIOUS Electric Guitar of some sort...a guy can dream, but if Taylor made a legit semi-hollow, they could get me excited. T3 is not what I'm talking about at all in its construction or orientation. I mean do what Eastman did with the Romeo, or what Beard has been teasing. Something a little unique, but still traditional enough to really hit the core of that higher-end electric market that ISN'T fender copies. Can;t wait to see what it is... |
With the introduction of the American Dream guitars, the next logical step would be to re-introduce '90s vintage Taylors that so many seem to like....

I’m not sure I can afford to have my game changed any more. As someone said, Taylor is the king of marketing.

Am I the only one that thought Taylor's guitar line up was just fine before Andy Powers came along and reinvented everything?
Can't help thinking if he's so great why didn't he build his own guitars .... like auto executive John DeLorean did! :) |

I like my GS mini, don't get me wrong, but if Taylor had a parlor in there lineup, even if it was in the 100 or 200 series, I would have gotten that instead. I'm curious about this new item coming out. We'll wait and see.
