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.

Vault Fridays: Gibson SJ-200 True Vintage Guitar

vault

We’ve decided to start a new weekly feature here on the First Quality Music Blog: Vault Fridays. 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.

Last week, we showed you a very special Gibson F-5 Mandolin signed by the late Charlie Derrington. This week, we decided to pull a Guitar out of the vault, the Gibson SJ-200 True Vintage. Gibson’s master luthiers in Bozeman, Montana set out to recreate the legendary SJ-200 that helped define the American music scene of the 1930’s, and we’re pretty impressed with the outcome. This guitar features deep, well-balanced tone and the powerful sound we’ve come to expect from the Gibson Super Jumbo line.
