What kind of Taylor is this?

Post by Thomas »

I was flipping through the channels yesterday and saw an alan jackson concert. He was playing a BEAUTIFUL Taylor guitar and I was just hoping someone could identify it for me.

i haven't kept up with taylor in years but i didn't know they made them with the fancy sides and I'm assuming the back is the same. The inlay is new to me too and I've never seen the electronics like that either.

Probably a custom job. The sides and and trim look like those off the fall limiteds, though I don't think the one he's holding has a spruce top (looks darker)

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": The food court is downstairs. The cookie stand is upstairs. It's not like we're talking quantum physics here.

Based solely on the inlay towards the bottom of the fretboard I'd say it has to be a limited edition from years past.

What kind of guitar does Alan Jackson play?
A custom Taylor 610 with a quilted maple back and sides, and what makes it really nice, in addition to its excellent sound, is it's abalone fretboard inlay of a blue marlin fish. Man, its just gorgeous. Alan also has a backup "stock" 610.
