51 2011 GUITAR GUIDE
SolidBody
Modular Design, Flexible Options
In addition to the SolidBody’s many innovative
features, the guitar was designed in a modular
way that makes it easy to configure your own
customized model from several option categories.
Choose the Standard or Classic body style with
a single or double cutaway. Select a color from
a distinctive palette of options for each body
style. Choose from more than a dozen different
pickup configurations, including mini and full-size
humbuckers, each offered in high definition (HD)
or high gain (HG) versions, plus vintage alnicos
and silent single coils. Opt for one of six pickguard
colors or go with the direct-mount option. And
choose between a stoptail and a tremolo bridge.
The SolidBody was also designed for longterm
flexibility with Taylor’s aftermarket, solderless
Loaded Pickguards. These allow you to swap
out the entire pickup assembly of your guitar in
minutes on your own to transform your guitar’s
tonal personality. It gives you the tonal benefits of a
whole new guitar at a fraction of the cost.
You can explore all the options offered with the
SolidBody using our SolidBody Configurator,
which enables you to build a virtual guitar model.
