Hi guys,
I'm new to the forum, after recently purchasing a gorgeous 2002, US built Big Baby Taylor. I really love these guitars (including the Baby).. I find their stripped down simplicity and charm so appealing to me, and that tone.. it really is something quite unique.
I've been primarily an electric player over the years, although recently, I'm developing more and more fondness towards acoustic. I think that the almost 'electric' neck, and heelless design of the Big Baby really lend themselves so well to someone who is more accustomed to electric guitars, and this is also one of the reasons I love them.
This is actually my third Baby/Big Baby which I've owned over the years.. the other two being sold to fund another acquisition.. but I always regretted parting ways with them, and so I eventually set out to find myself another. I have to say that this 2002, US built Big Baby is by far the best of the three, and I'm pretty certain that I'll never part with this one.. the first I owned was a brand new Mexican built Big Baby, and then I later purchased a pre owned, US built Baby.. but this one has aged so well over the past 14 years, with a lovely amber hue and tone to the Sitka Spruce top, and I'm very pleased to own one of these little gems once again.
Well thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to taking part in the forum.
