Taylor T3B electric guitar with Bigsby tremelo in orange

Taylor T3B-08

Taylor Guitar’s T3 model is a semi-hollow electric guitar that is designed to offer a variety of different tones for guitar players of all levels and styles, which perfectly complements Taylor’s world famous build quality and fit and finish.

Players who like a deeper, rounder electric tone will enjoy this body style, whose sounds have coloured rock, jazz and country.

Featuring a beautiful quilted maple top, transparent orange finish, ebony fingerboard and elegantly bound F-holes, Taylor have taken a classic arch top design, and recreated it in a thinner, more modern package.

The guitar’s pickups are extremely versatile, and with clever coil tapping the player can achieve everything from soaring rock leads and chunky rhythm parts, to subtle single coil tones with plenty of clarity and bite.

A Bigsby tailpiece adds that classic vibrato to the mix, and Taylor have custom designed a roller bridge to help keep tuning stable.

All in all this guitar packs stunning looks, smooth playability and a huge variation of tones which will appeal to players of many different genres. 

We have one shop soiled model in stock with a small nick on the lower back.

Taylor Limited Edition GS Minis - rare beauties now in stock.

The GS Mini is the latest downsized "travel" guitar that may be small in size but has
amazing tone.  The Music Spot has just unpacked some limited edition Koa guitars.
Each of these guitars is superbly figured and looks fabulous.   Built in Taylor's
Mexican factory, this amazing guitar has become one of Taylor’s most popular selling
models.
How is this guitar different from a full size guitar?  Well, the scale length is 51mm shorter and the width is 48mm slimmer, but only 5mm less in depth.
The result is the ideal gigging and recording guitar that projects volume, warmth and clarity without the excessive boominess that engineers have to cut out with e.q. when recording larger models.

The standard GS Mini normally comes with laminate back and sides and a solid Sitka Spruce top, but The Music Spot has managed to secure some limited edition models with a gorgeous Koa back.
   
Some of these guitars come with the under saddle transducer pickup which is found on the 1 and 2 series Taylor Guitars. We also have the option to fit the ES-go pickup which can be sold separately.

This GS mini comes with Taylor signature playability, clear tone, and impressive sustain.

Playing this guitar is a must and we know you will just fall in love with it. We have!    

Come in to The Music Spot and check it out. There are very limited numbers of the Koa in stock right now, so be quick!.

Website Tweaking

Just for fun, we've changed the look of our website this month.
It was time for a change. The times, they are a' changing.
We thought "new government, new website".

Here it is

On The Fly

Propellerhead's Reason has some new effects that you can add on the fly. There are a lot of things you can do on the fly. Many audio programs claim you add this effect or that treatment on the fly. Problem is, how is that fly going? After having all this processing done on her/him by musicians and programmers all over the world, this must be one really exhausted fly. Not do mention distorted, convoluted, reverberated, echoed, delayed, compressed, limited, expanded, equalized, panned, filtered, attenuated, boosted, harmonized, retuned, pitch shifted, pitch corrected, remixed, ..... but not yet deleted.   (Thanks to Pragmatist for the pic).
