i bought this guitar from bajaao in the end of 2014. some people says its a small guitar but actually you don't know want it can do and what it actually sound like. i prefer this guitar than my other jumbo guitar. this give a really good tone and yes! its Taylor they make good quality guitars. they are the best i may say. I've been using it everywhere i go, from a small garage gig to a big hall and for travelling outside the country, this guitar is my favourite, small but good quality baby.. better get one and i guarantee that you will fall in love once you hold it.
