Taylor Guitars has announced prices for the new Taylor SolidBody electric guitars. Three Taylor SolidBody models are available: The SolidBody Custom (sapele body with an inset top of figured walnut and Venetian cutaway) will retail for $3,098; list price for the SolidBody Standard (sapele with a flame maple inset top and Florentine cutaway) is $2,398; and the SolidBody Classic (swamp ash with crushed pearl pickguard and Florentine cutaway) will list for $1,748.

All three Taylor SolidBody guitars feature new proprietary pickups: Style I, a 3/4-size humbucker design for Custom and Classic models, and Style II, an open coil humbucker for the Standard model. Other Taylor-exclusive touches include the ultra-stable T-Lock™ neck; a sculpted, completely-adjustable all-aluminum bridge and volume and tone knobs that are specially contoured for maximum control.

The Taylor SolidBody is a completely original design and reflects the same spirit of innovation and pure love for guitar building that has propelled Bob Taylor since his humble beginnings as a luthier in 1974.

A limited number of "pre-launch" Taylor SolidBody electrics will go on sale at select dealerships starting on November 23, 2007. Brand Marketing Director, Jonathan Forstot, says a lot of excitement has been generated by previewing the Taylor SolidBody at Taylor Road Shows, and through performance video clips on the company website.
