Taylor Solid Body Electrics And T5s -- And Raw Lumber

July 03, 2008
Taylor Electrics and T5s Summer NAMM 2008

The effervescent Brian Swerdfeger was our plucky guide through the packed Taylor Guitars booth at Summer NAMM in Nashville. He escorted us over to the company's solid-body electric guitar rack (a new single coil model was introduced at Summer NAMM), pointed out the new finishes available in their T5s, and lead us to what looked like the lumber section of Home Depot, but was in fact the front desk for their Built-To-Order acoustic guitar program. Taylor had it goin' on this year.
