Vault Fridays: Taylor 35th Anniversary Armrest Cocobola Guitar

Vault FridaysWelcome back to another Vault Friday! Each Friday I’ll venture into the Vault with one of our instrument specialists to showcase some of the cool stuff we’ve got hidden away in there.

This week we’re showcasing JC’s favorite guitar: the Taylor 35th Anniversary Armrest Cocobola. Like the other 35th Anniversary model’s we’ve featured, there are only 35 of this guitar in existence. It is unique in that, combined with some of the most beautiful cocobola we’ve seen, it features an edge bevel on the bass side of the guitar (AKA The “Armrest”). Inspired by luthier Grit Laskin, this treatment offers players the “coolest, most complex binding treatment you cna get on an acoustic”, as Bob Taylor describes it. This guitar has a Sitka spruce top with CV bracing, an abalone rosette, Gotoh tuners, and the Taylor Expression Electronics package. Check out the video below, or come in to take a look at this beautiful guitar!

You can learn more about the Taylor 35th Anniversary Armrest Cocobola Guitar here or by giving JC a call at (800) 635-2021 Ext. 7124

Vault Fridays: Taylor 35th Anniversary Baritone Guitar

Vault Fridays
Welcome back to another Vault Friday! Each Friday I’ll venture into the Vault with one of our instrument specialists to showcase some of the cool stuff we’ve got hidden away in there.

We’re showcasing another one of the Taylor 35th Anniversary guitars today, the Baritone. Befitting its name, this guitar  features a longer scale length (27 inches), allowing the guitar to be played in a lower register without sacrificing string tension. The Baritone is tuned in B and features Indian Rosewood back and sides with a Sitka Spruce top. Singer-songwriters who prefer the lower registers and guitarists who favor a deep, gritty sound will really love this guitar.
