Taylor Baby Taylor BT1
Taylor Baby Taylor BT1 3/4 Size Travel Acoustic Guitar
Series: Baby Taylor Series
Body Shape: 3/4 Dreadnought
Orientation: Right-Handed
Finish: Satin Natural

Overview

The Taylor Baby Taylor BT1 is one of the most iconic travel-sized acoustic guitars ever made, combining compact portability with the renowned build quality of Taylor Guitars. Designed as a 3/4-scale instrument, it delivers impressive tone and projection far beyond what you’d expect from its size, making it ideal for beginners, travellers, and experienced players alike.

At the heart of the BT1 is a solid Sitka spruce top, which provides clarity, brightness, and dynamic response. Paired with layered walnut back and sides, the guitar offers durability and a balanced tonal character while keeping weight down for portability.

With its shorter 22.75" scale length and compact dreadnought body, the Baby Taylor is comfortable to play and easy to transport, perfect for practice, songwriting, holidays, or younger players developing their skills. Despite its size, it retains strong projection and versatility across strumming and fingerstyle playing. 

Supplied with a padded gig bag, the BT1 is ready to go wherever your music takes you.
