User Reviews:
Feature:
Coulda came with sealed tuners instead of the open Wilkersons but oh well. Gives me something to change later.

Quality:
Other than the flat finish it looks flawless. May not shine too much but its tough as nails.

Value:
Couldn’t have spent my money more wisely. Didn’t care for the Martin Backpacker and it was more money.

Desirability:
Fills a void in my collection. Doesn’t take up much room in my cramped apartment.More practical.

Sound:
Sounds good enough for practicing in the bedroom, just don’t expect thundering bass cuz it isn’t gonna happen. Physically impossible with an instrument his size.

Ease of Use:
Had to adjust the truss rod to straighten out the neck.It improved the action drastically. High e is about .070 from the fret. Plays great.

Support:
No support thus far.

Overall:
Couldn’t be happier unless it was giving to me. I would definitely buy it again if mine was damaged or stolen. Inspires me to practice more.

Quality:
Well built. very solid, not toy-like.

Value:
Pricey, but well worth it.

Sound:
I tried five 3/4 size guitars by: Taylor,Martin, Ibanez, Yamaha and another one that I can’t remeber the name. Baby Taylor beat all of them hands down. NO CONTEST!! Martin is built like a tank, very solid but the tone is very dull and the others are nothing more than Toys. Baby Taylor is a real instrument, well built with solid top and ebony finger board and bridge. It has a wonderfull action and sound (you can hear the over tones very clear)and an absolute joy to play it. I bought the Baby mahagony which has a warmer tone, two years ago. Since then I have retired all my other standard size guitars including my Taylor 510 (I have small hands). Do not compare the sound of the 3/4 with a standard size guitar, naturally the full size will have a fuller and deeper sound. However the Baby Taylor DOES sound better than some full size guitars. I just whish this guitar had a built-in pickup. Try it for yourself and see.

Ease of Use:
Very nice neck. Electric-fast.

Support:
Have not tried them.

Feature:
Buy the gig bag right away

Quality:
The guitar is beatiful, and it is pretty tough. It now has two tours to Iraq, and has withstood the abuse very well.

Value:
This guitar is easily worth the price, and sounds and plays as good as the baby martin which is usually twice the price.

Desirability:
The guitar is beautiful, it is a pleasure to pick up and play every day, especially far from home whe you don’t have the luxury to take what you normally play

Sound:
For a guitar this size it has a very nice sound. A set of elixir strings helps alot.

Ease of Use:
It’s a little hard to play if you have big hands, but the ease of transport is more than worth the trade-off. The action is better than I expected it to be.

Support:
I ordered this guitar from Iraq, and it made it safely within 6 days.

Overall:
This guitar will travel with me until it just can’t anymore, and as it has proven to be very durable, I expect it to last until my traveling days are through.
