Watch
Why it matters
Acoustic basses are awkward instruments: most are large and quiet, which is why so few stay in a catalogue. Taylor's approach is a smaller body with a short scale and dedicated electronics, so the instrument works both as a practice bass and as a stage option. It sits against the handful of other acoustic basses from the larger makers.
Note
Taylor's entry into the modern acoustic bass market.

Before you buy
