Taylor Solid Body: A Look at Taylor’s New Electric Guitar
Taylor Guitars has continued to push the envelope with their new electric guitar called the ‘Solid Body.’ It’s a fine looker. I’d be interested to see if it plays as nice as it looks!
Pickups
The Taylor Solid Body hails two different styles of pickups. The first style is a classic 3/4 humbucker. The second style is a full-size humbucker.
Bridge
The all-aluminum bridge was designed completely from scratch. You’re able to adjust the bridge height from front-to-back and side-to-side. Once you set the intonation, you can lock the saddles into place as well.
Five-Way Pickup Switch
The pick up switch is configured as follows:
Position 1: Full neck pickup
Position 2: Inside coils of the neck and bridge pickups in parallel
Position 3: Full neck pickup with the inside coil of the bridge pickup
Position 4: Inside coil of each pickup in series
Position 5: Full bridge pickup
