Learn About the Taylor Guitars 110 Model

Dreadnought Guitars: A Taylor Tradition the Taylor 110 Continues

Bob Taylor launched his career crafting Dreadnoughts and Jumbos, working with shapes he inherited from Sam Radding, the owner of the American Dream guitar shop, where he and Taylor co-founder Kurt Listug got their start.

"Our dreadnought early on was pretty boxy, and the Jumbo was kind of a big square thing, too — kind of the American Dream take on the J200 or the big Guild stuff, back in the ’70s,” Bob recalls.

In 2003, the dreadnought underwent a major revoicing to give it a more competitive identity among flatpickers. A cannon, it boasted 50 percent more volume and a stronger bass response, and yielded a potent growl when players dug in without upsetting Taylor’s sonic balance.

The Taylor Dreadnought delivers a vintage dreadnought sound for the 21st Century.

5Best in Class  May 25, 2011 By JoshuaRM
Summary: This is a great mid-level acoustic. Good finish, very resistant to fingerprints so it looks nice. The solid sitka spruce top gives a good tone. Very nice for an acoustic guitar under $1,000. For the price, it's a definite "best in class".

Sound: It is very adaptable to all styles of music. It lends itself well to anything from acoustic rock, jazz, blues, country, etc.

The 10 works well with most techniques (i. e. hammers and pulls, bends, vibrato, etc). It's easy to form bar chords on the neck. It has very good resonance and tone. It's not very good for slide guitar, though, because it loses sound quality with any tuning that involves notes more than half a step away from standard. So, It works well with Eb tuning, but not so much for Drop D, Drop Db, etc. DADGad sounds alright, though. If you just play it normally (standard tuning, no slide), it has great sound quality, especially compared to other brands in the same price range. For their lowest model, it carries all of Taylor's quality.

Reliability & Durability: The hardware is good, but you might have to adjust the tuning mechanism (the screws in the keys) to adjust the tension you want on the keys. Personally, I like tighter keys to keep the mechanisms in place better. The strap buttons are very good and have held up well thus far (about 6 months). The finish is durable and holds up well to rougher/faster playing styles. It has stayed completely on and looks brand new.

Impression: This is a great guitar. If you are looking for a mid-level guitar and don't want to have to get a new one in 5 years, this is your best bet. Believe me, I shopped all the big brands and this was easily the best. I play lots of different music, mainly I would say "acoustic punk", folk/rock, most of it involves lots of strumming or complex picking patterns. It works well with everything that I play on it. My favorite thing is the slim neck, which makes it easy to bar and to navigate. I looked at Ibanez, Fender, Epiphone, Takamine, Dean, and most other big brands before I bought it and this was easily the best choice judging by sound and play quality.

5Money well spent  Feb 17, 2011 By Charles W. Quenichet "Lead Mist"
A very good guitar. I have several inexpensive guitars that I like very well and some that I really hate. After going to guitar center and playing all the guitars
up to 1500.00 I went on craig's list and found one of these for 450.00 with a gig bag, capo, tuner and stand. I had to shop around some and had to wait a couple of weeks but it was worth it. The only guitar I found (in the price range)that I liked better for general tone and playability was a 1200.00 all wood Martin.
The action on the guitar is slightly tight, but as stated in earlier reviews, the crisp, consistent tone is worth it. Also I notice mine does not have stamped Taylor tuners, which leads me to believe that the stock tuners are not Taylor tuners. It does seem to slip out of tune a bit, but if I have to spend 44.00 bucks on a set of 18:1 Taylors I don't mind. I recorded a demo of a song I wrote on it and was very pleased with the depth of tone. I would not recommend putting a pickup inside an acoustic guitar for recording purposes, as you will never get the purity of sound you would from a microphone, So this guitar does for me what any of the higher end Taylors will do for the most part. I wish I had started out 25 years ago with a guitar this good. I might be a better guitarist. It will do the same for you, I bet.

5Look no further!  Aug 16, 2010 By MojoJoe13
You cannot find a better sounding guitar for the price. Period. I had been a faithful Alvarez player for 10 years. I found this guitar at a shop in Corpus Christi and fell in love with it. It has a well balenced tone; crisp high end with clear low end. The over all action was a bit higher than I liked, but the work out is well worth the sound.

5Nice guitar  Jul 10, 2009 By J. Chad Davis
This is my second Taylor guitar and I could not be more pleased. As a fairly limited guitarist, I didn't want to spend a fortune on an instrument, but did want something that would give me a good sound. The solid wood top is not only visually appealing, but gives the guitar a nice mellow tone that I really like. I have medium-sized hands and the fretboard suits me well for both strumming and fingerpicking. The volume of sound is adequate for playing in a mid-sized room, though certainly wouldn't be adequate for an audience of more than a few people without amplification (the 110e or 110ce would meet that need). All in all, for te price range, this guitar suits me perfectly and others shopping for guitars in the $500-$750 range should definitely give this one a try.


5Amazing guitar!  Dec 03, 2011 By Vanidea
I've had this guitar for 6 months now and it still wows me every time I pick it up. It was definitely worth the money. I love it.
