Taylor is one of the leading US brands in the segment of acoustic guitars. With over 35 years of experience, they have grown to be one of the leading acoustic brands in the world, as well. A big part of their status and success is made up of small series of limited edition models. For years now, Taylor`s catalog is refreshed with brand new set of limited edition models every spring and autumn. Huge success and reputation boost followed and follows Taylor due to these installments. Thus, in 2012, Taylor decided to expand the concept of micro-series of exclusive models. The new platform is called Builder`s Reserve Series. Currently, Taylor is promoting Builder`s Reserve Series VII and Builder`s Reserve Series VIII. All of the series come as pairs. Pairs are made up of a full-sized exclusive guitar and either a uke or an amp.
