Learn About the Taylor Guitars 110 Model
The Taylor 110 is a superb option for the budget-minded guitarist or an “extra” guitar for the seasoned player, the 110 has an extremely rich and versatile voice. This model of the Taylor 110 is specially designed for left-handed guitarists.
Dreadnought Guitars: A Taylor Tradition the Taylor 110 ContinuesBob Taylor launched his career crafting Dreadnoughts and Jumbos, working with shapes he inherited from Sam Radding, the owner of the American Dream guitar shop, where he and Taylor co-founder Kurt Listug got their start.
“Our dreadnought early on was pretty boxy, and the Jumbo was kind of a big square thing, too — kind of the American Dream take on the J200 or the big Guild stuff, back in the ’70s,” Bob recalls.
In 2003, the dreadnought underwent a major revoicing to give it a more competitive identity among flatpickers. A cannon, it boasted 50 percent more volume and a stronger bass response, and yielded a potent growl when players dug in without upsetting Taylor’s sonic balance.
