The B2H "Baby Taylor" Mahogany Acoustic Guitar is great for young beginners, traveling and it has a sound that's so sweet. Even though its a 3/4 size there's no loss of tone or depth. You get a great sounding guitar that's easy to carry around.
The X-braced mahogany top adds midrange punch and a slight bluesy edge while the ebony fretboard gives you a slightly brighter edge to the tone.
Layered Construction
A well made layered wood construction can yield great sound in a beautiful, durable and affordable instrument. The layered sapele on this Taylor is a great example, using interior and exterior veneers of sapele with a core layer of poplar between them. One of the benefits of layered wood for guitars is extra resilience in the face of fluctuating humidity conditions. This comes in handy for guitars like the GS Mini and Baby Taylor models, which are travel-friendly guitars that may be more directly exposed to different environments. All Taylor layered-wood models feature a solid wood top to optimize the tonal response so your guitar will sound great and travel well.
Here's what Taylor have to say
The ¾-size Baby Taylor firmly established the travel guitar category years ago and today is more popular than ever. At the heart of it all is an authentic guitar sound and inviting playing experience. Featuring a layered sapele back and sides and a top of solid Sitka spruce, you can add a capo, high-string it, tune it down, play it around the campfire, help your kids form their first guitar chords — however you use it, it’s always fun to have one within reach.
