Taylor Guitars, a premier manufacturer of acoustic and electric guitars, is readying its fan-favorite Road Show event for its first-ever series of European Road Shows. With select dates in Great Britain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Sweden, the Road Shows offer Taylor fans an opportunity to experience the complete line of Taylor guitars, interact with Taylor staff, and take part in the lively, in-store gathering of musically minded individuals.
At each Road Show, the Taylor staff shares insights on the company’s guitar-making process and demonstrate how body shapes and woods affect tone. After the demonstration, players are invited to take part in the “Petting Zoo”: an opportunity to play a variety of different models, as well as rare and custom Build to Order guitars. Admission to each Road Show is free, and attendees can invite others to join them by visiting the Taylor Guitars Road Show page located at www.taylorguitars.com/roadshow.
