Taylor’s Nylon Series models offer all the distinctive flavours of the classical sound, yet with the modern, familiar feel of a Taylor steel-string. A pair of rosewood laminate models joins the Nylon Series, making a Taylor nylon-string more affordable than ever. Choose from the cutaway NS24ce and the non-cutaway NS24e. Each is a Grand Auditorium shape and features a satin-finish Indian rosewood laminate back and sides paired with a solid Sitka spruce top, along with Taylor’s ES-T® under-saddle pickup. With an ultra-playable 1 7/8-inch neck and onboard electronics, these nylons offer
a comfortable, performance-ready alternative to a traditional wide-neck classical guitar.

Egnater Rebel-20
"Every once in a while, a piece of gear comes along that just kicks your booty. The Egnater Rebel-20 mini stack is one very good example. Thought it weights just 16 pounds (7Kg) and ships in a handy shoulder bag, the Rebel 20 is no toy - add one or two of its portable 1x12 cabinets and you have a highly mobile and powerful amp. And that's just getting started." - Pete Prown, Vintage Guitar
"Some people will call it boutique gear, and it is clearly a pro-level amp, but there's a far broader appeal here than the term boutique usually implies. For starters, it's lightweight (and an easy rig to find room for) but it's loud enough to sound like it should take up a lot more space that's good and loud. It's also sturdily built, uncomplicated, and visually appealing. Oh, and it's got seriously killer tone." - Chris Burgess, Premier Guitar
Taylor GS6 Maple/Spruce with ES
Bob Taylor personally designed the Grand Symphony body style for a unique sound. A higher, wider waist and a rounder lower bout result in distinctive tone with deep piano-like bass, rich mids, and clear, balanced highs all with plenty of volume. This GS Series Maple/Spruce Top version features a solid Sitka spruce top for pronounced highs and big volume perfect to cut through a loud stage mix. The big-leaf maple sides and back impart additional clarity and punch plus sweet looks. A bound ebony fretboard and precision body binding combine with gold plated tuners and abalone rosette and position markers to create a sumptuous cosmetic appeal. Our version comes equipped with The Taylor Expression System pick-up.
Being
in the forefront of the music and audio professional community
we were made aware of the need in having a professional sounding
steel-string acoustic guitar at more affordable prices. In response
to this, we have created our own Timothy
acoustic guitars. These are all solid wood guitars that
have exceptional tonal qualities normally associated with guitars
costing much more. It comes standard with Elixir Strings and the Fishman
Matrix Infinity pickup system
".....plays beautifully and its tone rings out... Thank you for making such a wonderful guitar..." - Zeke (email)
"The tone of Timothy left quite an impression in my head as I went round searching... none came close" - Duuude (www.harmony-central.com)
"It's obvious this guitar was set up very well for good playability." - swiftz (www.harmony-central.com)
"The sound is amazing...... it's big sounding and the notes have a real prominence." - Greg (www.harmony-central.com)
Using
the highest quality components assuring sonic excellence and reliability,
we have taken matters into our hands and produced an acoustic guitar
amplifier that will deliver remarkable clarity and power with audiophile-quality.
"...the best acoustic amp I have ever heard! It beats some of the high end amps if you ask me...." - Hann (www.guitar4christ.com)
"...it rocks, cool clean acoustic sound suited for both clean plucking and strumming... I love it." - miraged (www.guitar4christ.com)
"My church uses the Stillwater too and I think it sounds great! I think the price is great too." - alleyoop2020 (www.guitar4christ.com)

Guitar's Expression system-equipped guitar reviewed in Guitarist
Magazine - "Ultimate Perfection"
Rupert Neve (inventor of the mixing console, Technical Grammy receipient & Expression System designer) & Bob Taylor
The June issue of UK magazine Guitarist features the first UK review
of Taylor guitars equipped with the revolutionary Taylor Expression
System pickup. ES-equipped 512-CE, 810-CE and 914-CE guitars were
tested. The conclusion?
"The
system tracks every nuance of your playing, no matter what level
of physical exertion your style involves, so you feel more connected
to what you hear through the monitors, increasing confidence and
improving your performance. As usual, this is not the realm of bargains,
but of ultimate perfection - and Taylor has, unequivically, made
a significant step forward in the way acoustic guitars can be heard
when amplified."
Taylor
512-CE: "Spicy acoustic sound, captured particularly sympathetically
by the Expression System".
Taylor
810-CE: "Potent new dreadnought tone and stealthily designed
electronics".
Taylor
914-CE: "Inspiring and, overall, comparatively most accurate
amplified tone".
