Collection: Taylor Guitars

Taylor Guitars are largely responsible for the development of the modern, American guitar. Since the mid-70s, Taylor has been crafting innovative instruments that address many of the issue’s players have been navigating since the dawn of the steel string. Whether it’s their “NT” bolt-on necks, which utilize a single piece of wood up the fretboard to the 19th fret and allows the guitarist to adjust action with shims, or their new “V-brace”, which reimagines the instrument’s internal structure to better follow the course of the strings, there’s always something new and remarkable coming out at Taylor.

The most creative and ambitious minds recognize that there’s always room for improvement. That said, their top priorities have always been consistency, playability, and tone. In a world full of “traditional” acoustics, Taylor has asserted themselves as one of the major acoustic builders by taking the exact opposite approach. As a consequence, nothing else sounds or plays quite like a Taylor.

Where Taylor Guitars Made?

• El Cajon, California (USA):
  This is Taylor’s original headquarters and factory. Most high-end, U.S.-made Taylor guitars—including many Builder’s Edition and premium models—are built here.

• Tecate, Baja California, Mexico:
  Taylor’s Mexico facility produces the majority of their mid-priced acoustic guitars. These guitars are built by Taylor-trained craftsmen using the same designs, tooling, and quality standards as the U.S. factory.

Both factories work closely together, and Taylor is known for its consistent quality control, innovative construction (like V-Class bracing), and ethical sourcing of tonewoods through their own programs.
