Taylor's exotic, heavily figured inset walnut top is a wood lover’s dream. The high-performance, Taylor Style I humbuckers are a tone lover’s happy reality. Progressive diamond fretboard inlays and on-edge Ivoroid binding around the body and headstock, with micro-purfling up the fretboard, complete the high-end design detail.
Taylor's unique humbuckers balance the sweetness of a vintage pickup sound — where you hear the woods and the ways the guitar is responding to the player — with the power to fully drive an amp without being super hot and overpounding it. No matter what your electric pickup of choice has been, these pickups will appease your sonic cravings, plus dish out some new tonal flavors with the help of our combo settings and tone controls.
Don¹t let the slightly smaller, 3/4-size fool you. This full-output humbucker is punchy, dripping with tone, and will keep up with every type of player.Tone Control
Tone controls on electric guitars are often along for the ride. Not Taylor's.The first two-thirds of the knob rotation acts like a traditional tone control. The last third, especially when all the way at the end, starts peaking the mids, yielding a killer nasal tone that resembles playing through a semi-cocked Wah-wah pedal. It¹s ideal for slide playing, or as a different tonal color for solos or throaty rhythm parts. The tone control together with the different pickup settings give you a whole new set of flavors to play with.
