The Taylor Baby guitar is a 3/4 size guitar that has 19 frets. It doesn't come with a pick up, but the one I have has a pick up installed that was put on when I bought it. It isn't inherently acoustic-electric so it doesn't have any setting controls. Having the pick up is nice, but not essential as it sounds good when just played acoustic.
UTILIZATION
The neck on the Baby Taylor has an overall nice feel to it. Since it is 3/4 sized, the frets are pretty small, and while I have small fingers, someone with big fingers might have some trouble playing this guitar. It is easy to access the top notes and is very light in weight. It has a great sounding tone for a little guitar.
SOUNDS
The overall sound of the Baby Taylor is clean and surprising big sounding despite its small size. I have used it for rock and pop, and also proves to be a great guitar to bring around and play solo because of how small it is. The tone is big and its nice neck makes it a pleasure to play. While this guitar definitley doesn't sound as good as some of regular sized Taylors guitars, it does sound better than a lot of regular sized guitars that are in its price range and above.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had my Taylor Baby guitar for about six or seven years. It not only is great sounding, but its small size makes it easy to bring around and be ready for action at any moment. It has a nice overall feel if your fingers are small enough and is very well built for the price. I haven't played or even seen any other acoustic guitars at 3/4 size, so I can't compare it to anything similar. The price is very reasonable as you're getting a great sounding guitar that has the Taylor seal, so you know you're getting a good product. All in all I'm quite happy with my Taylor Baby and would recommend it for anyone either looking for a 3/4 sized guitar, or wants a guitar with a different overall look and feel to it than they are used to.
