Members GreatDane Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 Taylor SolidBody Classic Electric Guitar Solid body electric was designed entirely from the ground up, and features Taylor's own humbuckers, bridge, tone controls and body aesthetic. Solid swamp ash body with a satin finish maple neck. Indian rosewood fretboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeftyTom Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 I like the guitar dimensions and features, but am a bit ambivalent about that pickguard on a white finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BeanoBoy Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 I always prefer separate volume and tone controls for both pickups but a lot of makers don't offer it. I would like to play one of these though. Looks cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Apple Slim Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 Tried one when they 1st came out. Nice pickups. I would also prefer a 2 vol 2 tone config.I liked it, but not enough to justify purchasing it.Looks wise, its a little bland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jelloman Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 Not... ...not digging the proportions, the neck looks stubby, and it's just "WHITE"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jkater Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 Not.I have an irrational dislike of Taylors (Was mostly underwhelmed by their acoustics given the asking price). I'm sure they're good enough but I'm prejudiced, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ancient Mariner Posted February 9, 2013 Members Share Posted February 9, 2013 Ambivalent, neither hot not cold. Some nice touches, but the shape and proportions are very unexciting. It looks like a PRS MIRA that someone tried to build from memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect something a little more exciting or groundbreaking coming out of Taylor. I've tried a Taylor electric or two and I find them very uninspiring and underwhelming. FWIW-I own an old MIA Big Baby-it plays nice and feels great but the build quality and everything about is incredibly cheap. Based on trying a lot of higher end acoustics lately, I'd take a Martin, Guild or Gibson over a Taylor almost any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good playing guitars tend to do that, in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
