2018 Taylor T3/B Black
Summary: This 2018 Taylor T3B has everything discerning guitarists love about the classic semi-hollowbody sound and applied signature Taylor design touches, led by proprietary pickups, to create an even more inspiring playing experience. Taylor's standard setup features high-definition humbuckers, with optional vintage alnicos that respond with extra warmth. A three-way switch covers full neck, neck/bridge, and full bridge configurations, while a coil-splitting application (pulling up the volume knob) transforms the humbuckers into single coil pickups. Roll the tone knob to boost the mids and pull it up to activate another level of control that dials in mellow warmth without giving up clarity. The Bigsby vibrato tailpiece is paired with a roller bridge to give players smooth pitch control that makes vibrato bends fun to explore.
