Taylor Circa 74 Amp with Stand

Designed by Bob Taylor and a handpicked team, this new two-channel acoustic/vocal amp combines warm sound, simple controls, and elegant woodworking craftsmanship.

The idea was simple: Build a great-sounding acoustic guitar amp you can also sing through; make it compatible with a wide range of acoustic guitar pickups and playing environments; make it practical and easy to use, without over-engineering it with too many controls or effects; make the cabinet from an acoustic guitar tonewood to bring an extra warm, smooth sonic character to the amplified tone; give it the elegant aesthetic appeal of a finely crafted piece of furniture; and, finally, add Bluetooth connectivity to stream music and play or sing along.

Working on the project reminded Bob of the creative, free-wheeling spirit of a startup, like the earliest days of Taylor Guitars, circa ’74 — which gave birth to the name.

Ultimately, the group’s labor of love produced an amp that serves up an ear-pleasing range of acoustic sounds and brings out the very best in musicians looking to be heard.
