Product Details
Slightly bigger than a Baby Taylor but just shy of a full-size guitar, the Big Baby is ideal for easy-playing, great-sounding guitar fun. Sporting a solid spruce top, sturdy laminate back and sides, and genuine Taylor craftsmanship, the Big Baby is pure acoustic bliss.

Woods - Sitka Spruce top/Sapele Laminate back & sides

• Sitka Spruce (top) "Picea sitchensis"
Sitka Spruce grows in a coastal "pocket" from Northern California to Alaska. This dense, straight-grained wood has the highest strength and elasticity-to-weight ratio among available tonewoods, an attribute that makes it an ideal material not only for our soundboards, but for our internal bracing, as well. Sitka produces a slightly brighter tone than does Engelmann.

• Sapele Laminate (back/sides) "Entandrophragma cylindricum"
This exceptional, mahogany-like wood grows throughout the tropical rain forests of Nigeria and the Ivory Coast of Africa. Ever since we introduced it in 1998, its legion of fans has grown exponentially. As a tonewood, it's denser and harder than mahogany, so it has a crisper, clearer, brighter, "pop"-ier sound than its more familiar counterpart. Loud and robust, with a lovely ribboned grain, sapele has been used by Spanish guitar makers for many years.

Body - 15/16 Size Dreadnought
Body Width: 15" / Body Depth: 4" / Body Length: 19 1/2"
Just shy of a full-size dreadnought guitar, the Big Baby picks up where the Baby leaves off, offering a bigger-bodied sound, yet still in an affordable, portable, fun package.

If you want a full-voiced guitar that you can feel comfortable taking anywhere, the Big Baby is an easy choice. With a solid spruce top, sturdy laminate back and sides, and genuine Taylor craftsmanship, the Big Baby packs plenty of Taylor tone into a great price point.
