Taylor’s new Urban Red Ironbark 500 series guitars are noteworthy on several accounts. Not only do they use local woods sourced with the help of Taylor’s Urban Wood Initiative, but the instruments also expand Taylor’s offering in terms of looks and sound. In this video, a group of Taylor artists, Jaco Caraco, Dory Lobel, Janet Robin, Taylor Gamble, Matt Beckley, and Horace Bray offer their reactions upon playing the guitars for the first time.
Also, check out Peghead Nation’s demo of the new 512ce!
